The suburbs are massive. Do you need to commute somewhere? Any reason you're not considering the City? The towns along the PATCO line like Haddonfield and Collingswood are nice, progressive, and have easy City access.

Dang, imagine they keep the monthly spots tight since they make so much more from hourly. At this point in the neighborhoods' development hopefully they'll bury a garage there and build on top soonish.

Believe the lot just south of Front and Master does monthly.

I would be too if I was still closer to the South Philly location. The new Kalaya's food is fantastic as expected but will be a better restaurant once they're through growing pains and button up the service for a large restaurant.

I've ordered from there a few times and it was great but efforts to visit have been hampered by illness. Definitely need to check out their omakase. But Royal Sushi is a long time favorite and would never object to a second location in my new neighborhood.

Call your credit card company and tell them what happened. It sucks and is inconvenient but you shouldn't lose any money from the credit card fraud part.

Middle Child, Kalaya and this moving to the area all in the last year and half. Good stuff for the neighborhood and some of my favorites moving up with me. Now just need a Royal Izakaya and Angelo's North.

I'm very obsessed with the dining room chairs I got there.

You can check out 6 different high end furniture stores on 3rd between Race and Arch and a couple more close by.

I think we just vary on the definition of "surroundings" Rutgers. I was talking about Cooper Grant and the waterfront. Yeah a bit further away is really sketchy. I was in law school there around the same time as you.

No, it's not. Rutgers Camden is in the cooper grant neighborhood and this is in Gateway. They're separated by a highway. The area around Rutgers is very safe, there are 3 different police departments, you must have talked to one of the County cops or just made that up.

This is great news for the area but the CEO's quote about "bring[ing] a level of energy to Camden" probably should have added "our office in" prior to "Camden." They are in an isolated office park right by a highway on the edge of Camden and the vast majority of its workers commute without ever leaving the office park.

You should be able to get a 1bd in pretty much any neighborhood with that budget, though you'll get less for your money in the best neighborhoods. Since you're moving here for the first time I'd do Rittenhouse, further south in the neighborhood the better.

When living in Rittenhouse I tended to get my groceries delivered but depending on where you are in the neighborhood the Trader Joe's isn't a bad walk and there are a couple new Giants on the edge of the neighborhood in walking distance.

What's affordable to you? Walkable to all those things generally increases the price but if you don't need a lot of space all of Philly is pretty affordable. Take a look at Washington West, Rittenhouse, Queen Village, and Passyunk. If those are too expensive check out around Callowhill, Pennsport, Norris Square.

RIP 12th Street Gym and the last racquetball court at an affordable gym in Center City. That place was a fire death trap though and needed to come down.

Maybe if it was towers going up but these are only 6 stories and they already have a grocery store tenant. I bet it'll be done next year at latest.

It was also a super easy process to adopt from ACCT when I did about a decade ago, hopefully still the same. Unlike some of the rescues that assume you're there just to eat cats and investigate you like you're trying to adopt a child.

All the local "rescues" get most of their cats from ACCT so I'd cut out the middleman and go there. You'll definitely be saving a life (or taking a bunch if you keep it outdoors so don't do that).
