Even that portion isn't very convenient for me from where I currently live. Unless I drive, which detracts from my overall enjoyment of the outing. Besides, it blows my mind that I should be required to have a car to get to a city park (walking would take me about an hour and I would have to go through some sketchy neighborhoods).

I could go into a rant about the Girard Ave trolley, but that's another discussion. I wish I could get to Pennypack on the el.
