The options are either higher density buildings with more units, or more expensive houses.

Hmm as a person of Faith and a black woman, I agree with you. There are many others things, that the black clergy and business persons should be focused on. I get wanting to help “minority” trade workers with contracts but this is one the BC/business people can sit out!

Are you sure? The website still says they refund you.

It was originally Xerox, not sure if it still is. The big problem was that Xerox had never done a fare system before, but they were the lowest bidder.

Temple does this. This specific spot isnt a Temple food court really, its the floor below the temple food court and is filled with fast food spots along broad. The vendors probably want the local traffic as well as students. Locals cant go to the actual food court or any school buildings without a student I believe.

The SEPTA Key Twitter account has been saying NFC is in testing and coming soon now that Tix is launched.

The boopers are a modular component of the gate itself.

This is the downstairs of morgan hall on broad. Its full of normal fast food chains. The dorm food courts the floor above, so i think thats why the first floor was treated as open

This is just the food court, the dining hall (which is more cafeteria style) is upstairs and has never been open to the public

The chains came in as part of the switch from Sodexo to Aramark for dining

That makes sense!

That seems like a good idea

I want to believe, but the neighbors in South Philly can be ruthless. I wouldn't be surprised if the plan gets gutted to add more parking on site to appease the neighborhood.

When I went to temple, our RD decided to host a haunted house in our dorm for the community kids. So we all decorated our halls and hid. I got a big bowl of candy to put at the end of our hall for them….that lasted two groups coming through. The bowl was gone, a kid broke into one of the rooms and was rifling through my neighbors stuff, another kid was spraying axe body spray (that he took) into our faces and my friend Yesha was groped pretty badly by an 11 year old. We ended up locking our hallway door and wouldn’t let anyone else in after TWO groups. It honestly just made me sad. We were all really excited to do it.

I had their deluxe pancakes as a reward for passing a drug test. That was good breakfast cake, went right to bed.

The owner isn't looking to sell, he's looking to demo and build a new condo building himself

The lot is 100% still there and free, unless they switched to it being paid in the last year

For those unwilling to read, it was in the first line of official gas stations in The U.S. There is historical context here, not many of them survived.
