Penn's Landing, Philadelphia


I like the dangling 'O' 
on this city cruiser 
spotted on Broad Street. 

 

Penn's Landing is located along the 
Delaware River... 


...Across the river 
is Camden, NJ where the Battleship New Jersey resides
as a Museum and Memorial.

This ship was built in the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard and
was launched during World War II. 


The Moshulu, a tall ship launched in 1904,
now serves as a fine restaurant in the Penn's Landing harbor.


Nearby is the Benjamin Franklin Bridge, 
but we all just call him Ben...
The lights occasionally change color,
but most of the time they were this shade of purple.
