It’s your last chance to take a stroll or lounge on a hammock this summer at Spruce Street Harbor Park. / M. Edlow for Visit Philadelphia
Spruce Street Harbor Park was slated to close for the summer after this weekend but officials announced due to popular demand, the park will stay open for another month — until Sept. 28.
You’ll be able to enjoy food on the floating barge, fountains, a boardwalk, an urban beach, life-sized chess and more for a few more weeks.
“We thought the park would be popular, but [we] had no idea just how popular it would be,” said Thomas Corcoran, president of the Delaware River Waterfront Corp.
The DRWC had received a grant from ArtPlace America to make the park possible.
In the winter, that area along the river is home to the Blue Cross RiverRink and Waterfront Winterfest.
