Love Park




Love Park, Philadelphia, is in need of some love.

Originally named the John F. Kennedy Plaza, and situated across the road from City hall, Love park brought skateboarding back to the East Coast of America after a long vacation in the Californian sunshine. Ricky Oyola, Stevie Williams, Fred Gall, Matt Reason, Josh Kalis, Brian Wenning, Kevin Taylor and many more are synonymous with one of skateboarding's greatest street spots.

Today, skateboarding is outlawed at Love Park with signs warning $300 fines for any wrong-doers. Today the politicians own Love, but one day skateboarders will take it back for good.
