Thank you. Indeed I have been educated as I understand the scope and magnitude of what we want to do! Part of why I’m looking for a one stop shop.

I also need a good roofer (this dumb house) but that’s unrelated. I saw some recommendations for the Roof Doctor on this Reddit and they are looking nice

Union complaint is opaque and in front of the Labor Board as we speak. They have raised objection to the city coordinating with us in any way beyond regular curbside trash collection.

So this just means we need to continue working directly with neighbors and businesses to manage the bags on the block and should not expect any coordination with sanitation to help resolve neighbor concerns.

I only know enough plumbing terminology to sound like I know what I’m talking about. The cast iron vent comes up out the roof and right on the other side of the “new bathroom’s” only exterior wall, which I think is what you’re asking about. However when I said “stack” I also meant bringing up water supply lines - there is no plumbing (waste or supply) on the 3rd floor at all currently

In the early 2000s there were no observation decks in the Philly skyscrapers. This building had an event hall on the top floor you could rent out. My girlfriend and I lied about throwing a surprise party for my grandmother just so we could go up and see the views.

Maybe that's out of date. I just signed my block up for Glitter last week, and they said by default they come the day before pickup. They give you the option for them to come the day after pickup, but someone on the block needs to hold bags until the next trash day.

Maybe they changed it knowing that this response from the city was coming.
