Interesting, the way I see cars driving that are missing or have obscured license plates it seems like more than 1%. But maybe it's just because it's noticable.

Fishtown was part of the Kensington District 170 years ago. It's been its own neighborhood in the River Wards longer than anyone living today has been alive. It's not helpful or accurate to call Fishtown Kensington.

In before the inevitable. No, the driving equality bill does not prevent cops from pulling over cars with missing or unreadable plates (it does contain language about plates, but absolutely says that the plate has to be readable and “clearly displayed”)

Thanks for the link! I’d love it if some retail space around here because it feels like Pennsport is all residential

Spot on. In just a few miles of Germantown Ave, you have Chestnut Hill, Mt Airy, Germantown, and Nicetown all within close proximity and all with very different vibes.

Reply to comment by SirLaxer in Which building has the highest floor accessible to the public? by HelloEverybody94
I had a drink up there with my family. The drink wasn't crazy expensive. I think it was like eight dollars for a beer. Which is like a six dollar beer and two dollars for the view. I consider it a bargain.

I was always curious about that place but the reviews are all over the place. And it looks a little ratchet from the street. What do you recommend?

It is owned and maintained by CSX, but trolleys ran on it up until 1995.
