Txt for $$ homes signs Archived

1400-2000 S. 15th Street Philadelphia, PA - Newbold neighborhood

South 15th street from Washington ave all the way down to Passyunk, in Newbold has been blanketed large yellow "Txt for $$" signs on every stop sign pole. Every block has one right above the stop sign. When calling the number it goes to voicemail. Some often block the actual stop sign. The signs are stacking on top of each other since they stay for months.

  I seen them put them up. Lugging a 40 gallon trash can with wheels. Step ladder in it with a stack of signs while he's holding a cordless nail gun and hammer.
  
  Not sure if you want to confront a large black guy holding a nail gun. The plastic signs make great trunk liners for your car.

A Garbage Can of Signage Open

1721 Mckean Street Philadelphia, PA 19145, USA - Newbold neighborhood

The owner of this corner bodega got out of hand with signs and its a visual assault on passersby. Why does the City allow corner stores to visually assault the neighbors? The bodega at 17th & Jackson cleaned up its act and the place looks great now. That took an entire year. Lets hope that this takes less time.

  I can see that not much has been accomplished on this posting. The sheer amount of disgusting signs make this corner bodega bring the property values down of everything around it. Besides, the visual nastiness of it attracts a nefarious crowd. Can only imagine what the inside of the store looks like. Why would anyone even buy anything from this store, other than the fact that it may be convenient. L&I needs to get the owner to take down ALL the signs and also inspect the inside of the store for cleanliness.

  All these nasaty ugly signs still remain and it is almost a year later. I even went inside the establishment to speak with the owner to no avail. The Asian community has succeeded in junking up almost every corner in Philadelphia as the City allows them to continue unabated with no penalties or enforcement.

Appliance delivery vans block view of crosswalk Archived

1600 W Passyunk Ave Philadelphia, PA - Girard Estates

The appliance store has both its panel vans parked so they protrude out into the street. This intersection is already quite dangerous for pedestrians and bicyclists due to a lack of proper traffic signals, and parking the trucks here means you can't see a car coming until you are in the middle of the road.

I understand South Philly is a tough place to park, but these guys need to park further down the block and only pull up to the corner for loading. I tried to talk to an employee of the store about this, but he laughed in my face, so I'm reporting it here instead.

Yes, it is a No Parking zone.

  What a surprise, once again the Philadelphia Parking Authority refuses to even acknowledge, let alone fix, illegal parking in South Philadelphia. Gee, I wonder where the higher-ups in the PPA must all live.

  Nope, still a problem. Someone please acknowledge this! One of these days, I'm going to go from a near-miss to a fatality. A road where people regularly go 45mph and turn without signaling should not be BLIND.

  I am closing this NOT because the City did anything, since that never actually happens, but because the store moved to another location. Not exactly a satisfactory resolution, but at least people can see to cross the street now.

  This is not a heinous visual blight. This is what is blighting Newbold right now -- corner bodegas painted acid puke yellow with tons of cigarette signs on the walls with the surrounding streets and sidewalks strewn with trash, namely Hugs, soda cans, water bottles and potato chip bags!

  Molly Day care doesn't move vans during street cleaning days. Litter from corner bodegas products are the worst! People who shop at ghetto stores litter like they just don't care. They most likely were products of Molly daycare growing up when they grandmother be workin and they momma be with her new baby daddy. sad but all so often this happens. So they shop at corner stores and eat takeout then leave the whole meal container on your step after sitting on it for an hour.
  
  People cause blight.

  classy. it would seem an easy way to catch these short dumpers would be to setup a 'sting dumpster' . in our neighborhood there are a few contractors who routinely short dump their trash on the sidewalk. the city seems to have no interest in catching them.

Dirt bikes and other illegal for road vehicles Open

  If you see illegal dirt bikes parked anywhere, call 911 with the address. We've been calling even when they're on the move. Also, some have been confiscated from the self storage at Quartermaster Plaza, thanks to a tip from residents.

  The dirt bike and atv riders are pretty careless, driving from curb to street and without stopping much at all. I saw them jsut miss a lil old lady walking around the corner and then the same atv rider also just missed a pickup truck driving down Federal Street. The police cannot and will not persue these "kids" because if the suspects are injured or killed during persuit the Philadelphia police dept. can be responsible. The cops have their hands tied behind their backs until one of these "kids" kill themselves unfortunitely.
