Lmao it's just a clickbait title, Temples campus is quite small compared to the area off campus housing is trying to gentrify

And not a chance either of those schools allow it to return. Too much rides on it, just as Temple is finding out now.

Hopefully we don’t lose our memories of the mid-10s and how the neighborhood was before too long.

That hookah longue is hood af, I'm surprised it's still open

Yup the 80s-90s was about the worst of it. Starting with the Sansom Common development in the 90s replacing the "dead zone" parking lots north of campus and then further development on the west side of campus in the early 00s things got better.

philly has a street’s department?

Maybe you heard about the recent graduate student union strike?

Nobody’s happy, but most of us just accept that we made a terrible decision in coming to work at Temple.

Principal tragedy here is the wasted EMT resources and the fear this puts into ordinary people. I'm numb to the rest of it at this point.

How long did it take Penn to improve West Philly? I lived with a landlord that bought his house on the corner of 44th and Larchwood in the 80’s and said the neighborhood struggled at that time.

Didn’t Krasner refuse to hire Temple Law grads because he didn’t want B-listers?

Yeah. I think it’s time for that to happen. There was a different dynamic then.

… no????

Not if you work there

I feel sorry for people like you who think grandstanding on Reddit makes them morality superior to those who actually do charity work.

Pack up your edgy atheist routine and take it back to 9th grade.

Apparently not completely.

You mean TempleTown? Peter Liacouras couldn't do it.

That is so unhinged and I’m here for it
