Case Study: City of Philadelphia engages citizens with cultural resources using PolicyMap’s CultureBlocks

City of Philadelphia - Customer Case Study

The City of Philadelphia needed a way to help citizens, city officials, local businesses, real estate developers, and funders visualize the city’s arts and cultural assets. To address this challenge, the city worked with PolicyMap to use its mapping and data platform for a more accessible view of Philadelphia’s creative resources.

PolicyMap created CultureBlocks, a tool that lets users explore cultural resources, download neighborhood cultural and demographic profiles, and identify locations matching specific criteria. The solution helped the City of Philadelphia engage residents and organizations in supporting the city’s creative sector, though no specific quantitative impact was provided.
