 Fitler Square 

Fitler Square is justly prized as a gem among Philadelphia's neighborhood parks. And just as with a precious stone, its beauty and charm is enhanced by its setting. Built and dedicated more than a century ago, this half-acre park is in the southwest quadrant of Center City, just south and west of the better-known Rittenhouse Square. Bounded by Locust Street and South Street, and extending from 21st Street to the Schuylkill River, the Fitler Square neighborhood is an easy walk from the city's most lively commercial areas, yet remains thoroughly residential.


The Square is nearly encircled by single-family homes, and provides the focal point for a modestly affluent neighborhood that includes several fine restaurants and a wide variety of shops and small. The Square also provides the site for annual seasonal events and activities, including the Spring Fair, the Easter Egg Hunt, and the Christmas tree lighting. Fitler Square is maintained with the help of Philadelphia's Department of Recreation. The Association supplies annual plantings as well as services that include lawn mowing and tree and shrub trimming and refuse removal.

The buildings that surround Fitler Square rarely stand more than four stories tall, and the surrounding tree-lined streets form a continuation of the Square as an urban oasis of tall shade trees and well-tended gardens. An addition to the natural beauty of the Square is the collection of animal sculptures commissioned by the Fitler Square Improvement Association displayed within its unpretentious wrought-iron fence. And dominating the center of the Square stands an ornate Victorian-era fountain that flows most of the year.
