North philadelphia is likely the best served by subway service- out of all places it has the least need for additional lines. Its probably only a 10 minute bus ride between certain EL stations and their counterparts on the BSL- that's really not far at all. The development has huddled around the EL while similar changes have been lagging along north broad. Perhaps one day developers will figure this out and fill out the gaps along North Broad. Its starting slowly, but there is still a ton of vacant and underutilized land north of temple. It honestly makes no sense when you consider the subway is RIGHT there.
