Daylight Savings Time Post

Rosewood St - between Broad and 15th and Catharine and Fitzwater

Losing an hour of sleep did not mean I would lose an hour of graffiti reporting.  Despite being exhausted, I still trekked out.  Without a lot of time, I decided to stay close to home and do a repeat of a some areas I have done before - particularly Catharine St from 18th to Broad.  It was mostly good - not a lot of big stuff.  I did trek down Rosewood St. between Broad and 15th and between Christian and Catharine and Fitzwater and found a lot of stuff, particularly the mural on the school.  Apparently Rosewood goes with the other tree names in the city (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosewood), not the site in Florida of 1923 massacre of African-Americans (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosewood,_Florida).  This was close to my alma mater, the University of Florida.

Going back through shows how hard it is to stay on top of this.  I wish more people would just report things in front their homes and on their blocks.  Our city would be much cleaner.

Still considering a walk down western Washington/Grays Ferry, Broad, and S 8th Streets.

76 to 95.  The one on North Broad is an error in the Philly 311 system.
Close up of this week and some of last week's.


Monday March 7
5th between Bainbridge and South - always seems to come back to this construction site.




Underpass by 25th and Washington.  Another area I've reported before.
16th and Christian
17th and Christian


Tuesday March 8

17th and Christian
16th and Lombard
32nd and Grays Ferry.  At some point I need to walk this area as it's hard to take pictures and drive.



Friday March 11

They clear out the graffiti on 5th between Bainbridge and South and it comes back.
5th and Lombard
I76 - Exit by 34th St.  Another repeat area.  Again, the Grays Ferry area is somewhere I need to walk.


Sunday March 13

Broad and Catharine.  They keep tagging this mural on a school.  Grrr.
`15th and Catharine.  In an earlier post they got the graffiti that was on the wall.  This time I submitted it as a vacant lot - some trash on the ground and a parking sign in the corner.
16th and Catharine - it's fun to report graffiti at the YWCA!
18th and Pine.  Mailboxes are not handled by 311 so I have to report them to the Greater Philadelphia Postal Customer Council.
16th and Fitzwater - also reported to the GPPCC.
Outfield wall on rec center at 18th and Catharine.  Another repeater.
Some "gay" statements on 18th and Catharine basketball court.
Coming off Exit 20 of I95 South Washington Ave on wall.  I volunteered earlier this morning packing food boxes (there's more than one way to improve your community) and got this on the way home.  I think it's another construction site.
Catharine between Broad and 15th - what is this thing anyway?
