SEPTA's South Broad Concourse to fully reopen for first time since COVID-19 pandemic

The South Broad Concourse connecting City Hall and Walnut-Locust stations will be completely open Monday for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic. Most of the underground network of tunnels reopened this summer in anticipation of the World Cup, MLB All-Star Game and semiquincentennial. But the South Penn Connector, a half-loop along South Penn Square connecting East Market and Broad streets, remained shuttered through the celebrations. Commuters will gain access to this corridor and with it, the complete concourse, next week ahead of the winter season.

Growing from its origins in progressive mental health care, Pennsylvania Hospital is shaping the future of advanced care for neurological diseases.

At a time when mental illness was viewed through a lens of superstition or moral failing, Pennsylvania Hospital’s Dr. Benjamin Rush argued that patients were not possessed but suffering from diseases of the mind. His ideas helped lay the foundation for modern psychiatry and cemented Pennsylvania Hospital’s reputation as a leader in treating disorders of the mind and brain.
