South Philly's FDR Park is a concrete, skateboard paradise, designed and built by skateboard enthusiasts. With features like the “Dome,” a four-foot wall of concrete that climbs up into a burly overhang; the “bunker,” a 60-foot long, 11-foot vertical brick coping that grinds real nice and keeps the place private from the road, this park is a serious challenge for skaters of all skill levels, all the way up to pro.
The park is situated right under the I-95 highway overpass, right off Broad Street, so it’s protected from rain and snow. It’s also accessible from the Pattison Avenue stop of the Broad Street subway line
