These are much weirder and cooler. I can't believe I didn't notice it before, but after seeing the Love sculpture on the other side, set in a radically different landscape, it occurred to me that the sculpture on the first side is another Philadelphia sculpture in a different setting, it's the weird sculpture to the right of the art museum.

Looks like it could be a Yes album cover by Roger Dean.

Not sure if this is our CTC insider's Instagram page (if so, wow you're living the life!)

I guess the X is for Xfinity, not an ode to the XXX Forum that used to be. Or perhaps, Let's Put the X in Sex, by KISS.

The infamous graffiti wall continues into the back room.

^^ sure, x for XFinity is what they'd have you believe. But we all know there's treasure there.

Here's an overly dark shot from the Schuylkill River park:

Looks like 4 Seasons opening date pushed back to Spring 2019. Was looking forward to a drink and meal there, but oh well, next year doesn't seem too far away.

Very good photos.
Up close, the blue film in several locations indicate that this building is not finished yet.

TK, if you took those sunset pictures, those are spectacular and mark a drastic improvement in your photography. Keep it up!
