Imagine the city towing cars that are legally abandoned!! Someone literally parked their giant trucks bumper (why the hell you need a Ford F6000 in a city is beyond me) over my wife’s bumper and if she had needed to leave she’d have been trapped. It’s buck wild.

The number of lifted pickups especially that park across the ADA cutouts is insane. Like I shouldn't have to backtrack a block to do an unnecessary crossing because I can't access the thing that is supposed to make the sidewalk accessible. Most of the time, it's both corners blocked like that. It's a nightmare to have any mobility issues in this city

It was there to deter people from parking on the shoulder. However, people don't care about laws because law enforcement doesn't enforce the laws. Welcome to Philly! Hope the person you picked up had a smooth flight and enjoys their stay!

eI'm a Philly resident, but my company has me on the books as a NYC employee (they had no 'remote' open headcount, but the fit was really great). Company records with me residing in Philly

I have to pick someone up at the airport in a month or so. Weirdly excited to give it a shot

Reply to On President's Day, a reminder that Philadelphian General George McClellan was the Democratic nominee in 1864. by rossdowdell
Finally losing his patience, Lincoln was famously quoted as saying, "If General McClellan does not want to use the army, I would like to borrow it for a time."

While he was a terrible battlefield commander, he was an extremely talented organizer and logistician. Basically built the foundations of the Union army that won the war from nothing.

If you are referring to the lot on Bartram, that's not the lot anymore. The new lot is entered off of the car rental road, same road used to access the Marriott as well, and empties out further back up the road at the split for the car rental road and road to arrivals and baggage claim. Yeah, the old lot, which was fairly close to the Wawa, and also for a time served as the lot for Black car/limos and briefly for ride-share cars, wasn't as well lit and also not as populated. The new road is squarely on airport property and is more well lit and "secure feeling".

If the building fell apart during transit, nobody would give a damn. That should tell us something.

It's a single lot, just before you enter the arrivals area, just follow the signs for the Cell Phone Lot...It couldn't be easier or more simple.

They take pride in carrying on a tradition of selfishness. It's beyond immature, it's pathetic

Reply to comment by BigDeezerrr in Pliny the Younger Day fundraiser returns to Monk's Café for first time since before pandemic by outerspace29
It depends on the year. I feel like last year, they not only had more than usual, but did this over a weekend.
I feel like it definitely used to be more than a 5 oz pour, too. Younger is fantastic, but $15 for that is pushing it for me.

So which is your place of residence? If you live in Philly and claim to be in NYC for tax purposes (beats me why) - that sounds like fraud to me (IANAL and IANACPA, though).
If you live here and work remotely for an NYC business - shouldn't matter (I am in similar situation, never had an issue).

Nobody, because it won't be accessible to the general public. I live in Fairmount and have spent time at Lemon Hill and didn't even know about the Sedgley Porter House since it is always surrounded by cars and tucked into a corner. It's a cute building and maybe could have been turned into something cool at the existing location, but this really does feel like a waste of money.
