Fairmount Park, Philadelphia, PA: Advisory Services Report

Report Summary: The Fairmount Park Conservancy (the Conservancy) works closely with Philadelphia Parks & Recreation to champion both the natural and physical assets of Philadelphia’s extensive park system. The Conservancy has invested more than $40 million in the Philadelphia parks system while increasing public awareness of parks’ role in contributing to the Greater Philadelphia region’s health and vibrancy.
