  Love the newly renovated Love Park. No more awkward steps in the perimeter of the park to get to the other side. And, a maze like landscape is finally gone and replaced with refreshingly open plan. Although I'm sad to see the grand water fountain which used to be the center piece of the park go, but it looks like smaller water fountains like the one at Dilworth Plaza, and The Sister Cities Park will be installed at the center of gently sloping park. The Flying Saucer structure, formerly The Philadelphia Visitors Center in the park is under going a major renovation. I'm excited to see when the structure is finished and maybe occupied by a restaurant. Finally, The Love Sculpture by Robert Indiana is back home at its original location. Visitors, take as many pictures as your heart desires.

  Nice, vibrant place at the heart of Philly. The city hall and masonic temple are right across the street. The park has the famous 'love' door of Philly. The parking at the love park garage is quite cheap ($10/24 hours).

  Recently renovated the famous LOVE sign.. they did an awesome job, it looks brand new! They didn't put the fountain back. I used to love taking pictures at the fountain. They keep up with the cleaning and keeping the homeless from setting up there. Of course everyone is happy the famous sign is back so they can take their pics! No trip to Philly is complete without it!!

  Looks like the construction is finally finished! All the Christmas shops are set up and it looks great! I've watched the remodel for months and months and months, and the only thing missing is the fountain. Not sure what the story is there, but it looks really good. Can't wait to see it without all the shops to see what it really looks like. UPDATE: Fountain is in place, kinda in the shape of a oval. It has sprinklers like City Hall, where it shoots up in different places from the ground. Trees and flowers are being planted. Overall this was a good remodel.

  So, when you're in Philly, there are a few "touristy" stuff you have to do, and don't try to tell me that you don't want to join in on the line of folks waiting for the perfect spot to get their Love sign photo, because you do, and you will. Love Park, and the Love sign is synonymous with Philly, and is at center city near City Hall. It is such a gorgeous area and in the summer, it's also nice to sit on the side and dip your feet into the fountain. When the wind blows, the spray from the fountain blows on you and it feels amazing. There are tons of what seem to be really nice people offering to take your photo for you, but just stand back and watch what happens after they seem to be so nice in doing so...they then demand money from the folks who just got their pic taken. Don't ask, or agree for strangers to take your pic. They want money. Take your own, it's cuter that way anyway! It can be a sketchy place at night, so be sure to stick with the daytime visiting.
