Logan Square Concept Plan
Aviator Park

Logan Square, one of Philadelphia's original five squares, has long been underutilized compared to its sister spaces. In 1919 the heart of Logan Square was reconfigured as a circle to better accommodate traffic patterns at this important access to the Benjamin Franklin Parkway. The conversion process left exaggerated roadway widths surrounding the circle and made the 'left over' spaces of the Square less than hospitable to everyday users.

Contributing to a new vision for Logan Square, our goal was to visually reunite the circle and the square and make Logan a true partner to its celebrated sister squares. The Concept Plan evolved from historical research and site analysis as well as community, stakeholder, and public agency outreach. Construction is underway on Aviator Park, the first phase project.
