I love seeing my hometown area represented. Thanks rocky. I have some pics from Japan that I'll dig for and post later.

You are most welcome.
I'll be looking forward to your photos from Japan. I love the asian neon.

Philadelphia, about 1991:


The building on the left is really quite a beauty; it's rather a shame to see it trashed by low-class activity.

That's exactly what I thought. (But I do like your photo enough to use it as my desktop photo this week.)

that block still looks exactly the same. There's a Trader Joe's across the street so I'm there all the time. I'll be so sad to see it go, when it does.

Housing "Erotic Emporiums" for so long, even if they did renovate those buildings they could probably never get rid of that funky smell.

In getting reacquainted with Philadelphia, what impresses me most is the retro time warp feel of the place. A picture doesnt really capture how looking down Drury street feels like you accidentally stepped into a noir movie.
