BREAKING: I just announced a $30 million plan to fix traffic congestion and keep people safe around the Sports Complex in South Philly.
This area is a major economic and entertainment hub — and too many of us know what it’s like to sit in that traffic.
Whether you’re coming into town for a game or you’re a local who drives on these roads daily, these investments will help you get to where you need to go safely and on time.
Like I said. City Council has a monopoly on Stupid ideas. She’s a socialist and no sane developer wants to build in her district. She’s cosplaying Mayor to the detriment of her constituents while flirting with Constitutional property rights. SJ has a legitimate 5th amendment case
This would be a mistake. Nationalizing the race and elevating another member of of the "let's get angry and yell" caucus would be a major let down to the people of Philadelphia. We need an advocate for the city who isn't going to use the seat as a bully pulpit for the Omnicause.
A step in the right direction, but a “TOD overlay” wouldn’t be worth much if it’s one that excludes:
- All Regional Rail
- All trolleys (including the 15)
- All high frequency busses
- the ENTIRE Broad Street line

The current TOD overlay has no BSL stops…
The Mayor is just expanding the existing law by ⬆️ the radius from 500 ft to 1,320 ft…
And leaving it up to the District members to add more stops because of… COUNCILMANIC PREROGATIVE. 🤷♂️
Up-zone ALL transit corridors. Fund SEPTA!

Is there any major commenter in Philadelphia who is anti pee & smoking on the subway but pro sidewalks and crosswalk parking? I'm pretty sure the loudest opponents (aka me) of the former also oppose the latter. And yes people do ask for them to immediately get towed.
This is a lost skill in sports broadcasting.
Kenny Albert does not say a single word after the 13-second mark. He says what needs to be said, and then he shuts up. He lets the moment speak for itself.
Lots of people in the business could take a lesson from him.
I’ve seen her positive words — If @PhillyMayor is serious about supporting manufacturing, shipbuilding, and the defense industrial base in Philadelphia, I will help her. New York is in a rapidly accelerating crisis of conscience.
