On Wednesday, September 24th, the Philadelphia ASCE Younger Member Forum went on a tour of the since-completed Schuylkill Boardwalk. The project's RE from Jacobs led the group of about 25 people along the length of the new boardwalk which required only a few finishing touches before opening up to the public with a ribbon cutting on October 2nd. This extension of the mixed-use trail contains bumpouts for users overlooking West Philadelphia and a ramp leading up to the South Street Bridge.

Tourgoers headed to Bonner's Irish Pub after the event for appetizers and socializing, and a good time was had by all.
