one of the women who was there helpings mother feeds/tnrs the cat colony there. unfortunately i reached out to a rescue i roster with as well and no one was able to help. hopefully she came down on her own overnight, i may swing by later to check on her

we tried that as well. she is so high up it was impossible to get the rope up on a branch even going off the ladder. there's two smaller trees right next to it and the rope kept getting caught in the branches

There’s not even space to do this at LAX! So that’s not even a good example. I was just in Seattle and they do the same thing as Philly

historic preservation can be incredibly dumb.

I live on a street that feeds onto Girard, and every single morning there’s a car parked in the x’d out spot right at the corner and it makes pulling out safely nearly impossible because I simply can’t see what’s coming. It’s a safety issue as much as anything else.

And we have a city councilman who promotes driving to the corner store. It’s an actual joke at this point.

I've been there a hundred times and still miss the entrance sometimes lol

The cops used to ticket. I haven't seen any effort to keep the shoulders clear since air traffic picked back up post-quarantine. I've done dropoffs/pickups at the airport maybe half a dozen times in the last couple of months and the people waiting on the ramps is as bad as it's ever been.

They could use this a small newsstand like shop which they can charge rent which will pay for the cost of maintenance of the building.

Parking in the middle of Broad St and parking to block corners/pedestrian crosswalks without any consequence too. Philly is just lawless when it comes to parking.

Yep, when I moved to the city I had no idea what it was. When I found out and tried to find it the first time I must have missed the sign because I ended up totally turned around. Great idea, but it would be much better with big signs that just say "Free Parking for Airport Pickup"

Ah. The rarest phrase on Reddit. "I was wrong." Hey, it happens. They actually operate a parking lot at PHL but I don't think they should legally give tickets the way I suggested. But maybe they should.

Airport isn't in the city. City wouldn't get any money.

The cell phone lot was a great idea but poor execution, it's too small and could use better signage. It actually gets really full at times then you have assholes parking all over the place to the point it's difficult backing out of your spot. I'll use it in the middle of the day but not during peak hours. People parking on the shoulder never bothered me it's plenty big enough and the police have more important things to worry about.

My two favorites are behind the Arcoloa Intermediate School and Potshop Rd between Township Line and Skippack Pike, near Worcester Stables around 40.17372393257792, -75.3432066611898 . You can see the city from both.

I am a big fan of architecture and generally speaking agree with the logic behind historical preservation. But this is dumb and a total waste of money. $1,000,000 from Chubb and all the future maintenance costs out of the Parks and Rec. budget...for what exactly? A single meeting room in Fairmount park? How about we maintain the existing mansions and centennial buildings in the park before adding more operational expenditures to the parks and rec budget?

I’ve 100% seen this happen everytime I’ve been to O’Hare. Can’t say for sure about LAX

This is the preferred method of double parking in the NE

Not really. Try this at LAX and the cops will be on your ass in seconds. One of the only positives of navigating that airport.

I’ve walked by that a million times and never realized it was an old gas station.

I wish the city would stop trying to collect these titles and instead would just do what it implies it’s doing- bring in migrants, find available housing for them, and help them find jobs in the city.
