Take a narrated stroll through Rittenhouse Square—Philadelphia’s six-acre living room—tracing its journey from William Penn’s 1682 plan to Paul Cret’s 1913 makeover. We pause at the fountain, scan the tilework, and meet the park’s bronze cast: Barye’s fierce lion, Manship’s lyrical “Duck Girl,” and Laessle’s beloved “Billy” the goat. Along the way, you’ll hear bite-size history, neighborhood lore, and pro tips on market days, etiquette, and the cultural gems ringing the square—from the Curtis Institute to the Ethical Society. Press play and let Center City’s green heart unfold, one bench, balustrade, and story at a time.
