Same for strollers. I’m getting really pissed off that I have to keep walking my son into a drive lane to get around a car/truck parked in the crosswalks. It’s like half the crosswalks north of Spring Garden.

The Atlantic City Boardwalk (gasp) is a great example. They installed 360 degree HD cameras every 150 feet with long range capabilities on the entire length of the boardwalk. They’re monitored 24/7. Crime, particularly violent crime, on the boardwalk is way down.
Proof: the murder on the boardwalk at Ballys last week. Cameras tracked the perp frame by frame and the cops had him in custody less than ten minutes after pulling the trigger. We have the technology and the money, yet this city does nothing.

What if we scheduled a block for the day before or the day of trash collection? Can they just leave the bags as if it were from a normal residence?

These and a Septa cop at every station on the MFL. You don’t pay, you get tossed. You evade, you get arrested. Harsh, maybe but the shit needs to stop.

We’re very fortunate to have a dense urban residential core here. That population has been great for keeping local businesses open during and after the pandemic. Most US cities have core areas that are mostly commercial/office space. Those cities have seen catastrophic levels of business closures. Hartford, Dallas, Houston, Jacksonville, Columbus, to name a few. While many like to bitch and moan about how awful Philadelphia is, all of us (actual) residents should be thrilled with how well our city has navigated the effects of the pandemic. All those residential towers are still being built, even with economic uncertainty for a reason. People want to live in Center City, regardless of what the media and social media would like you to believe.

Not only that, but with a rap sheet like this, he’s not getting hired anywhere, so we end up with a desperate violent criminal back on the streets. This leniency only increases the odds of his crimes escalating.

That’s simply not true. Regardless of the price range, more supply reduces overall prices.
