I don't want to continue this topic as it clearly drives people crazy in not a good way.

As for the landscaped areas under 95 through Fishtown and Port Richmond, there are a series of neighborhood groups that do weekly cleanings and I think anyone who drove by would notice it's markedly cleaner now than it was, say 6 months ago. Some areas border on spotless. On top of that, once you establish a routine its easy to keep up.

Maybe you could establish such a group among the people who live in the northern part of Old City?

The last piece are the actual streets. We're not going to walk out onto the streets with broom sweeps when the city or Penndot should be doing it.

I was just under there this past weekend. It was spotless. You did it!

I love lists and rankings, and CBRE just released their "Tech Talent" 2024 report cards.

Philadelphia ranks 24 of the 50 largest markets in North America. The biggest takeaway (IMO) is that Philadelphia produces tech talent, but doesn't retain much tech talent.

How does Philadelphia become more competitive in tech?

By having more tech jobs to keep talent from leaving.

That could be a threat to Chinatown so it's a big "no" for me.
