About Me

My Author Icon is a photograph of One Liberty Place - currently, the tallest skyscraper in the City of Philadelphia. In addition to offices, Liberty Place has retail shops and a great food court. It occupies the square block between 16th, 17th, Market, and Chestnut Streets in "Center City" (i.e., downtown Philadelphia.) The City of Philadelphia (and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania) are 326 years old, and get better every year. The city and region's history, educational institutions, cultural attractions, architecture, sports, nightlife, restaurants, and arts, make it an awesome place to live - and visit. Got questions about Philly and/or the region - which includes not just the Pennsylvania suburbs, but southern New Jersey ("South Jersey") and Delaware, as well? Let me know!

It is the rare suburban region in Greater Philadelphia that can be enjoyed, without a car. That having been said, you will be able to see more of the sights if you do bring your car. Accordingly, I'd strongly recommend driving there, particularly if you're coming on the weeken...

Who needs the hassle and expense of driving to see the Home Town Nine at gorgeous Citizens Bank Park? The Broad Street Subway will get you there more quickly, at less expense, and without the aggravation of traffic going to and coming from the ballpark. If you're from out of town, no car is needed - just walk from the hotel to the Subway. If you're from Greater Philadelphia, you can take SEPTA Regional Rail or other City Transit to the Subway. Or you can drive to Center City, find ons...

All are conveniently located within the "most historic square mile in America" in Old City. In addition, with the exce...
