Philly: Springtime for Fitler

Fitler Square in the springtime. Fitler Square is Rittenhouse Square’s smaller neighbor, but has just as much charm and is closer to the Schuylkill River. Oh yeah, Schuylkill River Trail, the dog park, Fitler Square itself, and coming soon, the boardwalk extension of the SRT. Sweet as a bunch of blooming flowers in the spring.

Callahan's is closed down. Never saw anything but oldheads in there anyway.

Leo Bloom approves.

If you Philly guys keep up all this great photography of such an awesomely fine-grained and walkable cityscape, you risk having guys like me moving there. Just saying.

These nonstop, awesome Philly threads make me regret delaying my Philly trip from this month until late July. Excellent set, Swinefeld!

Awesome! It seems that you and I hit up the same area around the same time

Our tastes are similar I see some of the same subjects in both our treads please don't take this the wrong way - I think that's awesome! Maybe we could do a photo shoot one day

This was a nice trip though one of my favorite neighborhoods. You took some gorgeous shots of Fitler in the spring Swinefeld!

Wow, so many awesome Philly threads back to back! If I could be so bold as to make a request, did any of you Philly photographers happen to make it out to the PIFA Broad Street Festival this past weekend?

Beautiful area. I love that old lane at the top. A bit surprised by the name - awfully close, isn't it? Gorgeous city!

Stunning! Just about all of my fondest memories of Philadelphia are from springtime, and for good reason.
