WHAT'S OUT THERE® CULTURAL LANDSCAPES GUIDE
In Partnership with the National Park Service
The What’s Out There Cultural Landscapes guides are produced as a partnership between the National Park Service and ұ. The series began in 2016 in acknowledgement of the 100th anniversary of the NPS’ founding.
In recognition of the 100th anniversary of the founding of the National Park Service (NPS), ұ and NPS partnered to document nationally significant landscapes in five cities. The interactive online guides focus on Baltimore, Boston, New York City, Philadelphia, and Richmond.
From the city’s founding in 1682 to a wave of urban renewal in the 20th century, Philadelphia’s landscape legacy is rich and nationally significant. learn more
