Great news for that corner. Also, finally some movement at the gorgeous old bank that was most recently a Wendy's, but's been closed for a couple of years: Burger King installed new signs this week.

Massive northbound delays on SEPTA B1. Overheard someone saying he’s been waiting since 6:55, over half an hour ago. No explanations on the platform or the website.

Cool! If you’re posting on your phone, you should see a bar at the bottom with icons. Tap on the one all the way to the left that looks like a landscape picture to add photos to a post. I circled the icon in red here.

The grand court, filled in for a concert on the LARGEST ORGAN IN THE WORLD. Hope it’s not too long until the next one. This building is too important and too much of a treasure to shutter for long.

Over the last 20 years, I’ve been inside this building dozens, if not hundreds of times. But today was the first time I realized Macy’s never even used the full floor plates for display. Sections of entire column bays are hiding behind drywall if you know where to look.

I know SEPTA has much bigger issues to tackle, but platform doors like these in Busan would go a long way towards making the subway system safer and more reliable.

I love SEPTA’s new signs. But’s it’s going to take me a while to stop calling it the BSL.
