Packer Park Perk #2: Golf, Fishing and Outdoor Activities!!
One of Packer Park’s highly underrated attractions is its super close proximity to FDR Park in South Philadelphia.
When we sell homes in the area to out-of-town Buyers they are blown away by the underused green oasis within walking distance to our Neighborhood. It is definitely a huge selling point to be able to bike, jog, walk and golf nearby. In addition buyers love that the baseball/softball fields, kids playground, skateboard park, fishing, picnic & tennis areas, dog walking, nature walks and so much more are all within a couple of blocks of Packer Park!
Which other neighborhood in the city can boast that it is located two blocks away from a 348 Acre urban Oasis with a Golf course, about 125 acres of buildings, picnic areas, pathways for walking, landscaped architecture, and a variety of recreation areas placed within about 77 acres of natural lands including ponds and lagoons?
Bordered by the South Philadelphia Sports Complex on South Broad Street, Interstate highway-95/Philadelphia Naval Yard and Pattison Avenue/ Packer Park residential neighborhood. Many Philadelphians enjoy it as a green “Oasis” for a variety of recreational activities.
The park was built to the design of Olmsted Brothers, the firm of Frederick Law Olmsted and John Charles Olmsted in the early 1900’s. The parkland was reclaimed mostly from marshlands of Greenwhich Island one of several islands in the area created by river channels present in the 1700 and 1800’s. The use of the park for the Sesquicentennial Exposition in 1926 and subsequent improvements have moderately changed the original design, keeping the main character of the park west of Broad Street. The original plan of the Olmsted Brothers still remains highly visible and significant west of Broad Street. The official name was changed from League Island Park to Franklin Delano Roosevelt Park in the late 1940s and a golf course was constructed. The park’s boathouse, gazebo and American Swedish Historical Museum are reminders of the 1926 Exposition. In 2000, the park was added to the Philadelphia Register of Historic Places.

Heavy Smoke Pours From Packer Park House Fire!
A big warm thank you to all of the police and firefighters that came out to assist with the recent fire at Brinton Estates in Packer Park!
Click Here for News Story: Heavy Smoke Pours From South Philly House Fire!
Luckily no one was seriously injured and everyone is ok!
According to NBC10 News:
Three police officers are injured while rescuing an elderly woman from a house fire in South Philadelphia. The fire started around 6:30 p.m on the 3200 block of Chaucer Street in the Packer Park section of the neighborhood, near Citizens Bank Park. The fire quickly spread to at least four row homes on the block. “We were just walking out of the house and a neighbor came running up, and told us our deck was on fire,” said Mike Coplove. Dark, thick smoke was seen rising from the neighborhood and witnesses tell NBC10 they could even spot the flames from the ballpark. The three officers, who work in the 17th District, broke through the front door of that elderly woman’s home to help her escape. They were treated for minor cuts to their hands. The Red Cross is assisting 5 families whose homes were destroyed or damaged.The cause of the fire is under investigation.
