I used to work in downtown Philly 40 years ago... it was nice.
Went there recently for a wedding. There were drunks and drug addicts passed out on the sidewalks everywhere. Not against the buildings or on steps, but right in the walkways at the intersections next to the municipal building.
Worked at 15th & chestnut in the 60’s nice at the time.

AND they were just the city officials!!!
