^Buildings on the right appear to be rowhomes that were converted by the university. (Note the UPenn van-offifial vehicles are the only ones allowed here)

Levy park considered the "center" of campus. This is the location of College Hall, Cohen Hall(the first and second buildings to be built as part of the West Philadelphia campus), Fisher Fine Arts Library and other lovely historic structures. Also the alternate "Love Park"
