Description
Welcome to the campus of the University of Pennsylvania, one of the first universities in North America. Founded in one building by Benjamin Franklin and others in 1751, today it is located on 299 acres in the neighborhood of West Philadelphia.
On this Campus tour, we will see some of the architecturally important buildings housing the schools of business, astronomy, nanotechnology, and engineering, to name a few. We will see dormitories, restaurants, shops and beautifully maintained grounds. I will give information about Philadelphia, including a very brief history, its present-day transportation services, weather, and safety. As I walk, I invite questions and welcome comments.
