The love sculpture was designed by Robert Indiana in 1964 as a christmas card design which has spread all over the world as sculptures in many different cities.
LOVE Park (JFK Plaza, Philadelphia) was built in the 1960s at the eastern end of the Benjamin Franklin Parkway and across from City Hall. In the late 1980s, by an accident of history, young people discovered that the park's curving stairs and ledges were perfect for skateboarding.
This design has become an iconic and universal symbol throughout the world...promoting universal love, no matter what your race or creed may be.
And, of course, it has been made with love in Philly :)
