Ashley Hahn and Christine Fisher of PlanPhilly's "Eyes on the Street" set out on a "Park(ing)" adventure, to capture about 20 park(ing) spaces across the city last Friday. September 21 marked Philadelphia's fifth annual Park(ing) Day, a daylong event when design firms, community groups, and city agencies transform ordinary on-street parking spots into unique, temporary public spaces. The city hosted 59 installations this year, nearly doubling last year's total. The day showcased everything from a "color garden" of arts and crafts, dining gardens, play gardens, and even a Shipping container turned art gallery on Chestnut.
