Crime map update

We’ve updated the crime map page with data from 12/08 to 12/21/2008 and the crimes we track are continuing on a downward trend.  It could be a seasonal dip or a positive trend.  BUT murder in Frankford increased in 2008 over 2007.  Not a positive trend.

One item  to note is the cluster of burglaries along Orthodox Street, between Melrose and Tackawanna.

Christmas lights in Frankford

We have been touring Frankford for the last few nights and I have to admit I was surprised on a few streets.  On some, it was completely dark and yet on others it looked like Broadway.  I think the best lights on a single block were on the 5000 block of Duffield.  Close to that was the 1600 block of Haworth.  The most extensive decoration on a single property was down on Orchard Street.  That place deserves a video.  The slide show is below.  Here is the flickr album.
