Lardner's Point Park — Attraction in Philadelphia

Lardner’s Point Park, a 4.5-acre gem in Philadelphia’s Tacony neighborhood, offers a refreshing riverside experience with its modern amenities and natural beauty. Located at the base of the Tacony Palmyra Bridge, the park features a paved area with benches and a gravel trail that connects to the East Coast Greenway. The highlight is the fishing pier that extends into the Delaware River, providing stunning views and a haven for anglers. It’s a perfect spot for a leisurely stroll, bike ride, or simply enjoying the waterfront ambiance. Lardner’s Point Park is a testament to the city’s commitment to creating accessible green spaces for recreation...

EDIT: Unfortunately it is now overrun by dirt bikes and ATVs. There have been people burning a fire by the wooden bridge. Summer fireworks are killing the native wildlife. This is so disheartening.

It's a very relaxing place to walk, run/jog, bike, and fish. Native plants and flowers line the path. Clean up is a lot better in regards to the illegal dumping. Deducted one star because the restrooms are still closed, you have to use Porta potties or outhouse...

This is a great spot if you want to just relax and go fishing. I went there this morning with a couple of my friends to just cast our rods and shoot the breeze to catch up on one another. I really had a good time. There is a bathroom facility less than a hundred feet away from the pier. This spot has all the things you'll need if you bring your kids. There's also a water fountain and a bike trail. Need I say more! You will have a great experience, I know...
