From Center City: 

Get on the Ben Franklin Parkway and head toward the Philadelphia Art Museum in the distance. As you approach the Museum-on your left side-is a traffic light. Bear right and look for Kelly Drive signs. Kelly Drives runs along the north side of the Museum. On your right will be another traffic light and a gold equestrian statue of St. Joan of Arc. Moving onward you will see on the right another traffic light and a tall  statue of a seated President Lincoln. Ahead on your left is a series of Victorian Architecture structures (Philadelphia’s famed Boathouse Row). Go past these for about two miles when a white Police barricade will appear. Bear right past the equestrian statue of President Grant and seek parking signs toward remote parking. Park and wait for a shuttle bus to the regatta.
