Volguus never fails to impress. Always worth it. Always.

I've given up saying "this is my favorite Volguus photo set" because each new one becomes my favorite.

Intense. When I think of Philadelphia I think of variety: The richest of the rich, the poorest of the poor and everything in between. The city is so mature, hundreds of years old. It's seen booms and busts and booms again. It's shiny, it's run down, it's colorful, it's dull. But it is a collection of everything a city could possible be.

Thanks.
The gentrification line (and my place) is two blocks west of this spot which has been the spot of two killing in the past year. The turnaround is that stark in places.

Infamous?

Flickr's the reason I bumped this, actually. In my traffic stats over the past couple of days I've had a few hits from SSP that linked back to this thread so I said 'what the hell'.

So...who's been clicking?

A very fine showing, VZ. I need to make it back sooner, rather than later.
