Play Everywhere: Philly kids are getting 16 spaces designed to spark joy

FDR Park in South Philly is getting a new pop-up playground that was designed by young people and is being built by volunteers. It opens up for play on July 23.

Philadelphia’s first female Council President Anna Verna was a longtime South Philly resident and lived near the site of the new playground park.

After four years of planning and fundraising, the Add B. Anderson school is getting a green space and play equipment to bring nature into the city.
