The lights are out at Bartram's Garden in Southwest Philly because thieves stripped copper from the lamps.
It happened some time on Thursday or Friday. Philadelphia police estimate the damage will cost the gardens between $30,000 and $40,000.
Bartram's Gardens posted a message on social media telling people to be cautious in the park at night while the lights are out.
