For more than a century, Broad Street has been the
central artery of Philadelphia
Long a hub of commerce, Broad Street transformed into the Avenue of the Arts and became so much more. Today, it’s a source of pride for the region, a vibrant destination for arts patrons and food enthusiasts, a fast-growing residential area, and a signature street where the region celebrates its champions and welcomes the New Year. The Avenue attracts a myriad of patrons and generates millions of dollars annually from taxes and direct spending by organizations and individuals. In 2008, it was named one of America’s “Great Streets” by the American Planning Association.
