About Penn Treaty Park

Penn Treaty Park sits along the Delaware River in the Fishtown section of Philadelphia, reached from Beach Street close to Delaware Avenue. Run by a volunteer nonprofit group, the park offers a quiet spot to relax by the water and watch river life. Visitors can find free parking beside the entrance on Beach Street or across Delaware Avenue on East Columbia Avenue. A stretch of the nearby Delaware River Trail was scheduled to close for construction through September, so trail users should check current notices before heading out.
