Philadelphia's Portal Connects Love Park to the World

The interactive art installation offers a live video link to cities in Ireland, Poland, and Lithuania, fostering global connections.

The Portal in Philadelphia's Love Park is a 12-foot-tall, 3.5-ton structure providing a 24/7 video feed to Dublin, Vilnius, and Lublin.
Created by Lithuanian entrepreneur Benediktas Gylys, the Portal aims to bridge cultural divides and foster international unity.
The installation experienced a minor setback with a cracked screen, but it remains operational and is set to be repaired soon.
The Portal's debut attracted hundreds of Philadelphians, engaging in visual interactions with European counterparts, enhancing a sense of global community.
Plans are underway to expand the Portal network to additional locations, including Brazil and Ethiopia, as part of a broader initiative to connect cities worldwide.
