Farewell to the tool library

Photo of a residential city street in which many people are outside. Some people are standing around - including one man standing on a parked car - and others are sitting on a small overhanging roof outside an upstairs window. A man, who is blurry, is riding a bike in the foreground.

Silent film showing in Clark Park

America perfected the Doric Order in the 20th century

Article says plans to do anything in Fairmount Park "fizzled out" over parking!?

Lol if only there were a way to get to CC from Fishtown

Why's the headhouse so big?

Praying for the Ucity Ave & Spruce Wawa to close at this point because the bikelane beside it is always parked up with cars from people running in or a Wawa delivery truck parked over the flex posts.

Philadelphia's population density in 1960

The magical touch of the New York Metro. Easy to tell you're in a North Jersey suburban main street from the shop awnings and the fact that everything isn't dead.

What decade built would you guess it is?

Key card riders have only been around for 7 years so it's not a difficult feat

Today, I’m thankful for the center city commuter rail connection in Philadelphia. I enjoyed a quick 1 seat train ride from West Philly to Glenside and got to read the paper.

Pennsylvania Railroad company logo

Why hire a graphic designer when you can just copy the logo of an defunct rail company?

City Hall is about double the height, removing the statue still puts well ahead.

Ah, Children of the Stones, one of the more random things I watched during early 2020 along with The Changes (1975).

SEPTA postpones long-planned bus route overhaul amid likely fare hikes and service cuts The decision to halt the Bus Revolution program was characterized as an indefinite “suspension.”

This would have made buses run more efficiently saving septa money. Our “Democratic” city council dragged their feet and now none of us will be getting bus service at all. Thanks Philadelphia City Council www.inquirer.com/transportati...

America's red shift: Map shows how much each state moved toward Trump All but two of the 46 states declared so far have shifted toward Donald Trump since 2020.

The two blue states that saw the least Trumpward shift are Washington and Colorado.

Guess who produced the most housing per capita of blue states last year.

Colorado and Washington
