First Steps in Fitler
submitted by David P.
On September 27, 2006, my daughter took her first steps in Fitler Square Park. Somehow, I managed to capture this memory with my camera since the iPhone hadn't been invented yet.

Welcome to Philadelphia’s Fitler Square Park, justly prized as a gem among Philadelphia’s neighborhood parks. Built and dedicated more than a century ago, this inviting half-acre park is between 23 and 24th Streets, at Pine Street. The Fitler Square neighborhood is an easy walk from the city’s most lively commercial areas, yet remains thoroughly residential.

Our Bench
Submitted by Leslie W
This is "our bench." My husband kissed me for the first time on this bench in 2016. It's also where he proposed to me in 2017. And in 2018, it's where I told him I was pregnant.
Fitler Square Park is the setting for countless memories; it's part of who we are as a family.
Forever at the Fountain

My husband and I had our first look at the park before our wedding ceremony. At the time, we had a cute little apartment right down the street, and we loved spending time at the park! We will be celebrating our 5th wedding anniversary this year!
