Benjamin Franklin Parkway is a scenic avenue that runs through the cultural heart of the U.S. city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Parkway serves as an integral part of the Museum District of Philadelphia. Named for favorite son Benjamin Franklin, the Parkway is a mile-long diagonal roadway that cuts across the grid plan pattern of Center City's Northwest quadrant (similar, for example, to the diagonal avenues in Washington, D.C.). It starts at the Philadelphia City Hall and ends at Eakins Oval in front of the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Some of the most famous sites in Philadelphia are visible here: Basilica of Sts. Peter and Paul, Swann Fountain, which is encircled by Logan Circle, the Free Library of Philadelphia, the Franklin Institute, Moore College of Art and Design, the Academy of Natural Sciences and the Rodin Museum. At its ending point, the parkway provides access to Kelly and Martin Luther King Drives (formerly West River Drive) in Fairmount Park and the Schuylkill Expressway (I-76).
