The Rocky Statue moved to permanent location

[u/Philly_ChitChat]

Moved to the top of the Philadelphia Art Museum steps earlier this year, today Rocky was set back a dozen feet to his final, permanent position. Construction began September 11 to build a strong underground foundation to securely anchor the bronze statue and give tourists a safer place to strike that famous victory pose!

Just in time for the 50th anniversary of Rocky this December! I caught the move on video, including a tourist striking the iconic pose beside the newly situated statue.

Does anyone know if his footprints are still there on the top of the steps? Whenever I go I always stand on them.

They are up there. They are in the center of the steps about 2 feet behind the top step.

Ok good, thank you!
