It’s time to take down the Art Holiday poll so I wanted to recap the results. Will you miss the Art Holiday? 6 people said yes and 17 said no. I heard an interesting rumor circulating down at that end of the town that the Art Holiday is going to become a condominium community. Doesn’t seem likely but then we will see.
Vermin again
I was coming up Wakeling street last night at about 6PM and was stopped at Torresdale avenue by the wail of police sirens. Torresdale was blocked off and Fox news and KYW were both shooting video down Torresdale toward Margaret Street. Still I couldn’t see much of anything and thought it was a lot of fuss over a fender bender.
This morning I read that some low life hit two kids, stopped to take a look and then sped off. These boys are lucky to be alive. We don’t know the circumstances of the accident. All we know is that the guy driving the vehicle didn’t stop and own up to it.
Message to the vermin: stand up and be a man.
Frankford home of the week
Frankford Drug Treatment Facilities
There has been an ongoing discussion over on phillyblog about the prevalence of drug treatment facilities in Frankford. Does Frankford have a lot of these facilities compared to other areas of the city? Do the facilities exist to treat Frankford residents or do the drug users move to Frankford because of the existence of the facilities.
One poster took the time to compile a list of these facilities and I have mapped them to Google maps to let everyone see where they are. As we update the list I’ll adjust the map.
