Convention Center pylons
Addressing visitor needs
Originally designed for change- able information while the side- walks around the Convention Center were under construction, these pylons were adapted to
the Walk!Philadelphia program. The maps cover all of Center City Philadelphia and show cultural
and entertainment resources and accommodations. Pylons facing
the street contain a welcome graphic in order not to distract drivers.
