Center City Wall Now Stands To Honor Phillies History

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — Some of the greatest names in Phillies history, including Mike Schmidt, Dick Allen and Jim Bunning, are gathering on the Walnut Street Bridge today for the dedication of the Phillies mural.

The mural above the CSX tracks, delayed for years by safety and legal issues, is now finished.
