In large part, it's
where there are trains. In a city, there has to be trains
somewhere. But it's a shame Philly's city planning was so ass backward and we located rail and highway right next to what should have been a prime resource: our rivers. Can't tell you how much I enjoyed the Chicago river when I lived there (not to mention the Seine). It's very difficult and costly to address something like this. The minimal capping that's happening on 676 is pretty expensive and it's a drop in the bucket.
