The Elliptical Lawn is the focal point of Drexel Square, offering plenty of green space for visitors to escape the hustle and bustle of downtown Philadelphia.

Park tables surrounding the lawn encourage social gatherings. With complimentary WiFi and plenty of nearby restaurants, it's the perfect setting to enjoy a meal or work outdoors.

The park is located in the heart of University City and is easily accessible from any location downtown.

Large raised planters are home to varieties of lantana and Wave petunias, providing colorful groundcover to the base of the Redwoods.

Planters are mulched seasonally and kept trim to protect the Redwoods.

Concrete meridian lines make the Elliptical Lawn accessible for strollers & wheelchairs while giving off a unique, geometric aesthetic.

Lantanas line the planter and are kept at least eight feet away from the trees to prevent damage to tree roots.

Turf health is extremely important due to the delicate environment in which the lawn exists. Edges are closely monitored for turf burn and irrigation schedules are adjusted as needed.

A bird's eye view reveals the uniquely-designed lawn and surrounding planters.

Twenty 30 ft. Dawn Redwoods surround the park, offering some seclusion and shade to the areas within.
