In Logan Square

It's only been like two months since we last checked in on the large mixed-use project at 22nd & Hamilton that was once called as Rodin Square and is now known as Dalian on the Park. This project replaces an unattractive Best Western hotel and is best known as the future

A slice of Philadelphia culture, 23rd Street Cafe hosted jazz jam sessions every Tuesday night for the last twenty-five years. For a great story about the history of this institution, read this Inquirer story from over the summer. If you read the story a few months ago, you still had

If you've visited the Ben Franklin Parkway at any point in the last year or so, you've probably noticed the large construction site at 22nd & Hamilton where a crappy Best Western hotel once stood. The hotel got demolished a little over a year ago, and a large mixed-use project

We were in the market for some cases of beer today, and found ourselves at Franklin Beverage on the 1800 block of Callowhill Street (they take American Express, by the way). Before we made our way inside, we noticed a faded zoning notice next door at 1823 Callowhill St., the

The Mormon temple on the 1700 block of Vine Street has progressed considerably in the last eighteen months, so we figured it would be a good call to provide an update. At last glance, the structure had just begun to rise to the point that it could be seen above

This block is most famous as the home of the Please Touch Museum for decades until its move to Fairmount Park. It's perhaps slightly less famous for its views

Have you been to 21st & Hamilton lately? It's a major construction zone right now, thanks to the Rodin Square project. Remember, we first told you about this two summers ago. Last July, we told you about the fence surrounding the old Best Western Hotel, signifying the demolition was neigh.
