The Delaware River Waterfront Corporation and Mayor Michael Nutter unveil the third pier park on the Delaware River Waterfront in Pennsport
Philadelphia, PA (October 1, 2015) – The Delaware River Waterfront Corporation (DRWC) and Mayor Michael A. Nutter today cut the ribbon for Pier 68, the third permanent pier park to open on the Delaware River Waterfront following the Race Street Pier in 2011 and Washington Avenue Pier in 2014. The half-acre Pier 68, located at the end of Pier 70 Boulevard at the Delaware River, is a place to relax and enjoy the distinctive views of the city skyline and the river, a place to learn about the tidal ecology of the Delaware River and its watershed, and a place for recreational fishing and public gathering. Each new park built by DRWC is tailored specifically to its location and to public input from the neighborhood, in this case, Pennsport. While each park is unique in its objectives and designs, they all share cutting edge landscape architectural design.
