“The Second District is my home. I grew up in these neighborhoods. That’s why I could not be more proud to represent you in city council. I believe this district is the heart and soul of Philadelphia and my priority is to make sure every single person has a voice in their future.”
– Democrat Kenyatta Johnson
For Kenyatta, fighting for Second District families is more than a job–it’s a lifelong commitment. Learn more about his vision.

2021 Philadelphia Flower Show: All the details about the event at FDR Park - Philadelphia Business Journal
What to expect at the 2021 Philadelphia Flower Show, which will take up residence at FDR Park in June.

It was my pleasure to be with @PhillyMayor, city officials and community leaders for a press conference announcing the #PhiladelphiaFlowerShow coming to FDR Park in South Philadelphia this year, the first time the Flower Show has been held outdoors in its 200 year history.
We have done a lot of work to improve FDR Park since I have been in office and the FDR Park Master Plan will result in more changes to the park. I think FDR Park is one of the jewels in the crowd of the City Parks and Recreation Department system.
The #FlowerShow will only use about 15 acres of FDR Park’s 350 acres so FDR Park will remain open for the public to enjoy. The Flower Show will be held June 5-12.
Purchase your tickets today since tickets will be limited. For ticket information, go to https://phsonline.org/the-flower-show
