Take advantage of car-free streets this month during Open Streets: West Walnut! On Sundays this September, Center City District will close 18th Street from Locust to Chestnut and Walnut Street from 15th to 19th, allowing pedestrians to enjoy outdoor seating, music, and activities at retailers and restaurants. From 10 AM to 5 PM, the 7-block area will be packed with street performers and group activities like salsa lessons and family-friendly games. Don’t forget to pop into your favorite shops for exclusive discounts and gifts!
