Dilworth Park: Redefining Philadelphia’s Public Spaces
At the heart of the park is the Albert M. Greenfield Lawn, a lush, open space designed for everyday enjoyment and year-round programming. Throughout the seasons, the lawn transforms—hosting a cozy hay maze in fall, a glittering Wintergarden in winter, and cultural performances in summer.
This transformation has made Dilworth Park a beacon of urban renewal, offering not just green space, but an experience—whether its children playing in the fountain, friends gathering for outdoor movie nights, or workers finding a break in the middle of a busy day.
Expanding Public Spaces and Accessibility
Beyond Dilworth Park, The Albert M. Greenfield Foundation has played a pivotal role in Center City’s broader revitalization efforts. CCD maintains and enhances other key green spaces—including Sister Cities Park, John F. Collins Park, and Cret Park—ensuring that these urban retreats remain welcoming, safe, and active year-round. Additionally, CCD’s cleaning and safety programs make these spaces more accessible and inviting, reinforcing their role as vital community assets.
As Philadelphia continues to evolve, CCD and The Albert M. Greenfield Foundation remain committed to expanding opportunities for public engagement. The success of Dilworth Park has sparked new initiatives, such as Open Streets: West Walnut, which reimagines urban corridors as pedestrian-friendly, community-driven spaces.
By investing in public spaces, sustainability, and urban vibrancy, CCD and The Albert M. Greenfield Foundation are ensuring that Center City is not just a destination—but a place where people truly belong.
