Ben Franklin Bridge Hike
The view from the Ben Franklin Bridge is unique. You can see up and down the Delaware and the cities of Philadelphia and Camden from high up.
Starting at the Standard Tap where parking for the day is usually no problem, we head through old city to the Bridge. We'll take one of the walkways across, then head onto Rutgers campus and a real cool historic area of Camden including the incredible Johnson Library building, the old RCA buildings, and so on. If the weather is great I want to head down past the Battleship NJ area to see what we can see.
We will walk for 2.5-3.5 hours at a moderate pace. Afterwards we will head to the Standard Tap for brunch on the outside terrace.
Use this Google Map link to the starting point at Standard Tap, 2nd & Poplar, 19123

I am joining the hike on the Camden side. Sid does not have a cell phone to exchange numbers, in case of emergency. Is someone going on the hike willing to exchange cell phone numbers with me?
