St. Alban's Place was started in 1872 by Charles Leslie, who also designed the garden blocks at Madison Square in Phila. St. Alban's Place is registered in its entirety in the Philadelphia Historic Commission designation of historic places.

The garden is private, but open to the public year round.

The movie "The Sixth Sense" was filmed in and around the garden.

Leslie designed the garden to provide urban dwellers with access to "civilizing" greenspace. The design was featured in national magazines of the time, including Harper's.

(view on the map)

Designed by Charles Leslie before St. Alban's Pl., Madison Square Garden Blocks remain intact for the lengths of 2200 and 2300 Madison Square.

The residents of the block are organizing repairs of the historic iron work.

Original fountains and iron elements are intersperced with year round plantings.

Open to public. Private gardens.

The community picked the name "Asylum," a reference to the Naval Asylum across the street. But, "Asylum" was already taken at the PA DOS. So, they picked the second most popular community choice, yellowbar.

But, here are some old photos of the Naval Asylum that are really cool:
