| 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? |
