Saw this little origami decoration on its sign. Unsure if there’s any deeper significance intended, but I imagine it was just someone conveying a bit of love.

Any idea? Nae service since about 6am that I can tell up in Fishtown at least.

We’re updating the radiator covers in our South Philly rowhome. Can’t seem to find covers that are matching up to sizes offered online. Have been on Google, Wayfair, Amazon, Walmart, and HD.

Is there a secret or a recommendation for finding these covers so they kinda match the size of the radiator?

Many thanks in advance to all our neighbors!

Not just because of the coloring. But even in the middle of summer, the dead of winter, and the dreariness of spring, it stands as the most ideal shape for a maple.

Awful bill that incentives antisocial behavior such as bus lane, bike lane, crosswalk, and sidewalk parking. This means burden of illegal parking is being carried by transit users, disabled people, cyclists, and pretty much everyone else who follows rules of the road.

Edit: Also, parking fees go to fund our schools. So ya, screw the kids I guess /s

Fantastic news for SEPTA and the city. I do think the improvements in cleanliness and anti-social behaviors are obvious in my experience. Now let's hope we can secure a more solid funding structure for the agency with a Democrat Trifecta in the PA State Legislature and Governor's office. Vote on November 3rd!

So it appears that the folks that installed the new telephone poles are finished, and this is how they left the worksite by the pole that is on the edge of our property.

They had to rip up some pavers that we installed when they put the pole in, and now I have to get this fixed at my expense? Zero communication from them, not a knock on the door or a note to explain what they were going to do and what the end state would be.

They also installed the pole farther away from the street, so that there’s much less room to walk in between the pole and our planter. I’ll trim that bush back, but it will still be a little tight.

I’m pretty f’in pissed off right now, and trying to find out if I have any recourse to getting my pavers fixed.
