  • Pictures of my neighbourhood (again)

    Some people stay insisting I live in the suburbs for some odd reason so... (as an aside, i had posted this pics on newsmax and amazingly i found someone who lived right here... he had long since moved but he still recognized the neighbourhood from the pics. identified the streets and told me about the 7-11 on Oxford Ave... aint that something?)

    welcome to the part of philly that the liberty bell and independence hall aint a part of...

    My apt building...


    Foulkrod Street:




    The classic bars over windows...


    A small side street connecting to Pratt St.


    An old factory turned El Depot...



    Closest thing to courts we got... the city took them all down because of drug use and rowdiness at the playgrounds...



    Boarded up crack house



    thanks

          Are you telling me you couldn't possibly afford to move to a better neighborhood/city?

                Hmmm, I would post a picture of the apartments and area in Westlake where I'm moving in a few weeks, but I don't have any pics yet. Oh well

                  And by the way, AS, I'm paying for this out of my own pocket by working full time while going to school full time at UT. The point is, if you wanna move out, you can. Just get a job.

                      You goin to UT? Are you in Austin or do you commute?

                        I go to UT, and commute (currently) from Riverside, but next month I'm moving to right outside Westlake.

                          So Speer, how did you get these lovely pictures onto the internet? Did you use a digital camera? Or did you use a scanner? Either would be quite the luxury for an impovershed family. Or did you go looking up on the internet for some sample pictures of what poor neighberhoods look like?

                              AS, are you white or black? I always thought you were white for some reason, but i dunno if i just assumed this or what. It would be my guess, anyway.
