Photo 1: From Schuylkillbanks.org..."The land between the railroad tracks and the river becomes too narrow to continue the Schuylkill River Trail southward on land past Locust Street. To solve this problem, the City of Philadelphia and SRDC built a 2,000 foot long concrete structure running parallel to the eastern shore of the river from Locust Street to the new stairtower on the south side of the South Street Bridge." The boardwalk opened in October of 2014.

Photo 2: From Wiki..."Cira Centre South is a complex of two skyscrapers in the University City district of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, which is across the Schuylkill River from Center City Philadelphia. The location of the buildings is between Walnut Street and Chestnut Street south of 30th Street Station and the Old Post Office Building." The FMC tower tops off at 736 ft. while the smaller Evo Cira Center South is 430 ft. tall. The third tower in the background is the original Cira Center.
