Local Love

2026 is a big year for Philadelphia! We are preparing to welcome more visitors to our corridors and community businesses, but the success of our local economy will always start with neighbors. Our "Local Love" campaign has a different theme each month, to help celebrate and support the neighborhood businesses that make Fairmount, Brewerytown, Francisville, and Spring Garden unique.

Women-Led Business Guide

For March - Women's History Month - we are excited to debut our Guide to Women-Led Businesses in the Park to Broad District neighborhoods, and encourage support for all the women-led businesses in our directory!

We’re expecting less snow, and lots more opportunities to meet up with neighbors and support local businesses each day this month. Enjoy!
