It’s not sketchy. You can usually park right out front and pay the meter. They also—I think—have a parking lot. Things can happen anywhere, so don’t be too careless, but I’ve been around there at night a million times since I was a kid and never had a problem. Have a good time.

I agree, that's probably one of the safest parts of the city to hang out late at night. There's a ton of foot traffic around that area generally. Parking might be a bigger issue than crime.

I would not say that. That portion of Walnut is right by the bridge and usually devoid of pedestrians. Places without people at least always seem more dangerous.

+1 on that not being a sketchy part of town at all. There's also a parking garage right around the corner at Cira Green that I consistently get $6 parking for via the SpotHero app.

It looks like you only have to pay for street parking until 8pm, according tothe sign on Google maps street view.

Agree with all of these comments about it being safe
