Philly street festivals are shutting down because the city is billing organizers for tens of thousands of dollars in police overtime, yet elected officials have done little in response That may be because they don’t pay for their own events — taxpayers do inquirer.com/news/philly-st…
Did you know that classic cowboy brand Stetson was started in Philly? The company was making up to 3 million hats per year at their massive manufacturing complex near 4th & Montgomery Ave. Sadly, the incredible buildings are long gone, though vestiges of the layout still remain.
The city is about to make a push to revitalize Market East while a string of properties it controls near the corridor – the Atwater-Kent, the Roundhouse, this Polish museum – are effectively vacant inquirer.com/real-estate/co…
The new political map of NYC shows some stark divides: Very wealthy, very white and very Hasidic parts of the city went for Cuomo. Young, Black and Hispanic voters went for Mamdani. But the biggest divide? Transit vs. cars. nytimes.com/interactive/20…
This one and the next two show just how expansive of a regional rail network the Delaware Valley used to have outside of the electrified network
SEPTA Bethlehem line: SEPTA used to operate commuter rail to Allentown/Bethlehem. Trains were operated by Reading before SEPTA took over, riders would transfer at Lansdale from electric trains to Diesel trains. SEPTA would end all diesel service in 81, cutting Bethlehem service
In Philadelphia you need an ordinance to do things like this. The fact that no one on City Council even thinks twice about that is part of why we have such an anemic economy.
Putting out sidewalk tables and chairs for your business is easy: fill out a free form, learn the rules like keeping sidewalks accessible, and you’re good to go. No permit or free required. We want San Francisco’s businesses to bring our streets to life—just follow a few simple…
live look at Andrew Cuomo leaving NYC after the election tomorrow
After a brief speech and some handshakes and selfies, Cuomo ignored my questions and got in the white Ford Bronco to be driven to the next stop in Washington Heights.
Bethlehem Steel headquarters in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Oh, how I wish I could have seen the lobby close up...
1/2 This is Place Castellane, a major metro interchange in Marseille, France. Last June, with the extension of tram line T3, most of the square was returned to its rightful users: pedestrians. A 102-meter stone bench called “The Eyelid” now separates people from cars and trams
Syracuse NY was doomed when it decided not to have the canal going straight through the middle of its downtown anymore (it could still bring this back btw, wouldn't be that hard)
This is incredible reporting by @eroston and blows the lid off the lie of US land use. Rebuilding after climate disasters is now 35% of the US economy. This is your brain on car sprawl into high-risk climate zones. This is the high cost of "free" parking.
Instead of expansion and improvement, Southeastern Pennsylvania is looking at deferral and descoping of public transit projects thanks to the PA Senate GOP!
“I believe every parade has the right to exist” is something I’ll mumble to my loved ones right before I shuffle off this mortal coil
Why are there no Western outlets covering Palestinian hostages emerging from Israeli prisons missing eyes and limbs?
Palestinians are emerging from Israel's torture dungeons with missing limbs, one blinded, and some with harrowing testimonies of rape at the hands of Israeli torturers Greta Thunberg has detailed sexual humiliation and beatings she suffered after being kidnapped in international…
Hi all. Some news: I’m launching a newsletter with @SpotlightPA. Starting next week, you can get the latest on Pennsylvania government & state politics right to your inbox featuring the same mix of reporting and silly jokes that keep you coming back to this hellhole for more.
I think communications and storytelling is very important. It is telling to me that these images are of the mayor and law enforcement, and not social workers, educators, counselors, spiritual leaders and doctors and certainly not the folks in reentry programs themselves.
The new Reentry Center in Northeast Philadelphia stands as a testament to our commitment to supporting second chances — because our City believes in everyone’s ability to rebuild and reintegrate into our communities after incarceration. It will be a symbol of hope,…
they got a beautiful newly-renovated train station up there and said renovation was done at taxpayer expense so naturally the plan involves building a shed next door and having passengers board from there

Yesterday, Israeli occupation authorities transferred the bodies of 45 Palestinians to the International Committee of the Red Cross. According to the Palestinian Ministry of Health, the bodies bore clear signs of torture, mutilation, and field execution, including bound hands…
45 Palestinian bodies have been released by Israel. All had their hands and legs cuffed. Some were blindfolded. Some had gunshot wounds. "Others have been run over by tanks." Just imagine these were the bodies of 45 Israeli hostages released by Hamas. Imagine the coverage.
