Campbell Square Arch Dedication

 

Allegheny & Belgrade

 

The Friends of Campbell Square (FOCS) commissioned the new Archway for

Campbell Square Park.

 

Metal Artist Warren Holzman unveiled the twelve-foot tall steel sculpture at his Iron Studio on Friday, March 5, 2004.

 

Campbell Square is in the heart of Port Richmond on Allegheny Avenue between Aramingo Aveneu and Interstate 95. The arch is installed along the Allegheny center entrance, in conjunction with other 2004 park improvements.

 

The Recreation Department thanks the FOCS, the Park Revitalization Program, Philadelphia Green, Councilman Frank DiCicco and Councilwoman Joan Krawjewski for their support.
