Like any city, there's good parts and bad parts. I have to say that I was deeply disappointed by Street's race baiting and how successful it was in the last Election vs. Katz.
Street and the vast majority of the local politicians are criminals and will hopefully one day get their due.
Interestingly, I was driving through the neighborhood (South Philadelphia) last week and the wife and I were discussing the ubiquitous gentrification. Probably 150 new, $250k+ properties in just our division alone. I commented that "Street has been so busy stealing from the city coffers that he didn't have time to interfere with the real-estate developers."
Every cloud has a silver lining.
