Philadelphia -> Center City //a rainy day trip to philly

sabotai · #1 Posted **Sep 17, 2009, 4:30 PM**

I went to check bus fares to Philadelphia on Tuesday to discover bus fare is $2 roundtrip, which led to an impromptu day trip to Philly. Despite being half an hour late on the return ride, Megabus comes highly recommended. I didn't feel like carrying my telephoto and it was drizzly most of the day, so no people pics in this thread. Also, This thread is in no way comprehensive since it is the product of aimless wandering.

btw, City Hall is AMAZING in person.

Nice! you got pretty close to where I live (6th street around south) and you also got one of my favorite bars, monk's! Best seitan cheesesteak in philly!

I somehow always forget about Philadelphia, but thanks for reminding me. Beautiful place, thanks for the photos.

Nice pictures. I like the idea of looking up from the ground at the houses.

The quality of these shots with those lighting conditions is nothing short of remarkable. Thanks!

Wow. Love the stacked chairs, too. These decorations, though, are a little creepy....

Beautiful shots. I lived in Philadelphia for three years and you certainly have captured it in a way to induce some nostalgia in me. What a creative place to stick your cigarette!
I also see that you were at the Foodery. I almost rented a room in that building.
