Elevated park?
[edit]Recently there was a proposal described in the Philadelphia Inquirer to make the surface of the Reading Viaduct into an elevated urban park, something like an existing park in Manhattan. --DThomsen8 (talk) 15:19, 13 September 2009 (UTC)
Rail Park
[edit]I believe the only part of the Park that is actually open is the section west of Callowhill Junction, which is part of the old City Branch and doesn't have anything to do with the Reading Viaduct, which carried the Ninth Street Branch. The [Vision section of the park website seems to back that up. Mackensen (talk) 02:05, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
The Rail Park will never be allowed to expand all the way to Girard Avenue
[edit]CSX's Philadelphia Subdivision joins the aliment in the tunnel under Pennsylvania Ave, The Rail Park can ether stop at the tunnel and wall it off, or have a tunnel that dead ends at a brick wall before the active rail line merges with the abandoned alignment, ether way The Rail Park is never reaching Girard Avenue 151.197.48.152 (talk) 21:59, 16 March 2025 (UTC)
