"Fairmount is slightly to the north of Center City and connected by the Benjamin Franklin Parkway. The Schuylkill River snakes through the neighborhood with the beautifully designed Water Works and Boathouse Row on its bank. Fairmount is Philadelphia’s museum capital, home to the Philadelphia Museum of Art (famous in pop culture for the Rocky steps), the Franklin Institute, and the fortress-like Eastern State Penitentiary." - MATADOR_NETWORK
