We are just 3 blocks off of the new Schuylkill River Park bike trail, which runs from behind the Art Museum clear down to Center City. Check the details below.
BY BICYCLE:
(from points north)
Take the Perkiomen Trail, and/or the Schuylkill River Trail, the West River or Kelly Drive Bike paths, go between the Art Museum and the Waterworks to pick up the Schuylkill River Park path. Heading into Center City, you'll see 30th Street Station and the Post Office across the river, and on your side, you'll ride next to a huge ramp.
Make a U-turn onto the ramp and ride up it, following it up to Market Street.

Use the bike lane to pass WXPN & the WORLD CAFÉ LIVE and look for us on the right at 3131 Walnut Street, we're part of the Left Bank apartment building.
(from center city)
Just get on Walnut Street--cross the river, past XPN-World Cafe, and we're the next big building on the right.
(from south west center city + south philly)
Take the bike lane west over the South Street Bridge, then make a quick left into "Franklin's Cut" -- the little arcade/service road along the east side of Franklin Field.
