Philadelphia Art and Design District (PADD)

The History of Liberty Meets the Future of Innovation

Since 1776, Philadelphia has been the home of the builders and the craftsmen, the thinkers and the tinkers. It's where ideas and innovation collided to create the heart of the nation. Born from this spirit, a new heart has risen in Old City ... the Philadelphia Design District. From Second and Third Street to Market and Race, this eclectic community of shops, boutiques, art galleries and bistros is a collective community presenting the best in creativity and design in a vibrant and dynamic neighborhood.
