Fitler Square

 Fitler Square,  is located five blocks east of the Schuylkill River, this half-acre park lies on the edge of the Center City shopping district, and just a few blocks southwest of Rittenhouse Square.  Though the Fitler Square neighborhood is an easy walk from one of the city's most lively commercial areas, a glance west along Pine Street, the Square's southern border, reveals the silver ribbon of the Schuylkill River and the brooding red brick towers of the University of Pennsylvania campus beyond. In fact, a fifteen-minute walk brings a visitor from a bench in the park to the heart of this world-famous institution.

 

The Square is nearly encircled by single-family homes, and provides the focal point for a moderately affluent neighborhood that includes several fine restaurants and a wide variety of shops and small businesses.

During the day the Square offers an enticing meeting place for young children and their parents, while in the evening the Square invites strollers of all ages to stop and chat. And it's the Square's hospitality that accounts for so much of its charm.
