Reply to [Inquirer] Philadelphia collected $21 million in fees to improve pedestrian safety. Sidewalks are still treacherous. by Hoyarugby
The state of the sidewalks and streets right now is deplorable. It is a damn American Ninja Warrior course out there, even for an able-bodied individual, not to mention all the strange scents and dust clouds you encounter at face level along the way. Didn't a brick fall off some neglected building and critically maim some woman downtown the other week? Your usual shit-smears all along the way, too, not that the city can do much about dog doo...

I'll absolutely be voting for her. She has proven herself to actually care about the city and where funding goes. Please go vote!

OH MY GOD WHERE.
Wait why does everything say they're in Brooklyn tonight. I saw one thing that says UT but I'm trying to buy tickets and it all says Brooklyn.
Ah fuck it was last night

Yes, Alice is phenomenal! You can get one slice for $3 or 4 and a couple 50 cent little Italian cookies. One of the best lunches in the city.

Reply to Philadelphia restaurant operators scramble to comply with new streeterie regulations by nolandeluca
I hate having to awkwardly walk through Parc's bustling streetery all the time to get to my work. Either that or cross the street, when it's faster to use the walkway they are taking up. I don't blame the servers at all but they are ALWAYS moving across or down the middle of the sidewalk because of the way it's set up. I feel really bad that they have to work like that.

Partially filled, scheduled, sign-glowing buses pass by though. Especially on the 2 route, in my case.

You didn't do anything. The drivers can get away with it, so they speed through stops to get done with their route faster. I don't drive, but I still avoid SEPTA if I can these days...

Reply to Am I truly a dumb or is it actually hard to get around the city on SEPTA? by RoverTheMonster
SEPTA's been impossible for me too lately. Buses whizzing past me (aka someone making eye contact with the bus driver with my blue card visible, no mistaking I'm a passenger), buses late or missing with no indication on the app, Google or signage, routes detoured wildly with no signage or indication on the apps or Google, suddenly all getting booted off way before the terminal stop with no direction or warning. I'm having to walk 25 minutes+ when I can and Ubering now, often having to arrive late or canceling on people because the buses are completely unreliable!
