Pier 53 Ribbon Cutting
Pier 53 Park
Philadelphia, Pa.
10 a.m., FREE
Pop-up Spruce Street Harbor Park is awesome, but today, the Delaware River Waterfront opens a new permanent park up to the public in South Philly. Called Pier 53 at Washington Avenue Green, the new outdoor space features an upgraded path and raised boardwalk at the site of Philly's first immigration station. Stop by and get a glimpse of the park during a ribbon-cutting ceremony complete with opening remarks from Mayor Nutter.

Affogato Days
Pay as you go
Espresso meets Little Baby's Ice Cream for one wonderful summer treat. For today only (okay, and on one other Friday at the end of August), Elixir Coffee is offering the eye-opening treat for those in need of both a caffeine jolt and a cool-down.
