Description

There are no national parks in Pennsylvania. While there are tons of beautiful scenic destinations like Lake Erie and the Appalachian ridgeline, there are no parks with the coveted “national park” status. Host Trenae Nuri talks with Kyle Bagenstose, a freelance journalist here in the city, about his efforts to get a national park in the Commonwealth. 

Read Kyle’s full story in Philadelphia Magazine, here.
