With projects like the Divine Lorraine, the Metropolitan Opera House and the Beury Building, the community has a nervous excitement about this revitalization and the type of opportunities it could mean for their business, homes and families all along North Broad. The 2017 State of North Broad report provides an in-depth look at the changing landscape of North Broad Street and adjacent areas. From new to proposed development to quality of life, this reports aims to keep stakeholders connected and informed about this corridor, and what its revitalization means to them. Overall, you will see that North Broad is experiencing various highs and lows. You’ll see slight increases in statistics like population growth and income, yet the area still struggles with high unemployment and low educational attainment. Overall, our job at the North Broad Renaissance (NBR) is to take this information and data, determine how we can support the positive and mitigate the negative, and work towards inclusive growth than could positively impact the entire North Broad community – including our most vulnerable population.

Working together, we can create cleaner and safer streets, improve greenspace, and connect communities to resources and each other. These efforts can serve as the foundation for successful economic development and generate sustainable employment opportunities for families in North Philadelphia and beyond. The opportunity is right along one of Philadelphia’s most prominent corridors – North Broad Street! You’ve heard it before: North Broad Street was once considered the "Workshop of the World," with amazing infrastructures, businesses, arts and culture and a thriving community. Today, the corridor has its share of challenges, including more than 4,800 crimes that took place along North Broad Street in 2015, a 14.3% vacancy rate, and a large population living in poverty. However, with the completion our 2020 Vision – the community-driven strategic plan for the NBR – we are on the road to re-establish North Broad Street as the huge economic driver it can become, and revitalize communities, culture and commerce.

    TheWedge Philadelphia City Hall Centers Our featured Philadelphia image... The building was designed by Scottish-born architect John McArthur, Jr., in the Second Empire style, and was constructed from 1871 until 1901 at a cost of $24 million. With almost 700 rooms, City Hall is the largest municipal building in the United States and one of the largest newsletter in the world. VOL. 5 x NO. 2 x MAY JUNE 2012 Gerald Poole: Sometimes, people often feel trapped in the situations, cultures, or social circles we were born into. sHello, My Name is Gerald Poole, but everyone here at The Wedge calls me “Gee.” I started working in the field of behavioral health/mental health and mental retardation in 1989. I began my career as a mental health case manager/ technician and homeless outreach worker. Between 1989 and 1995, I met thousands of people on the streets of Philadelphia and surrounding areas who needed help: Housing, severe mental health disabilities, major medical issues, poverty, family problems and addiction. These jobs were rewarding; however I was not satisfied with just helping. I wanted to make a difference. As many of you who know me, I have a passion for helping members with drug and alcohol addiction especially those who have legal problems. I’m a firm believer in the NA/AA basic text quote ”we do recover.” Unfortunately, I had a major setback of my own and became unemployed for one year. On April 16, 1996, I met a strange group of people who worked at The Wedge. Just to name a few: Pat Palmer, Armand Mangauyando, Minda Mangauyando & Marilou Ramos.

Visitors come by the millions each year to walk the streets and see the buildings where Franklin, Jefferson, and many others debated and delineated the founding principles of the United States. Both the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States were signed in Philadelphia (in what is now known as Independence Hall), and the city served as the nation’s first capital from the Revolutionary War up through 1800. Few of Philadelphia’s visitors are likely aware that the city is also the birthplace of the U.S. Navy. On March 27, 1794, President George Washington signed the Naval Act, which called for the purchase of six frigates to defend the country. Built in a shipyard below Carpenter Street in Philadelphia’s Southwark neighborhood, the first of the commissioned ships launched from a private shipyard on May 10, 1797. Shortly thereafter, the Navy purchased its first piece of real estate along the Delaware River, establishing the Southwark Yard between Federal and Reed Streets in 1801. From Southwark to League Island (1801 - 1876) The Southwark Yard remained active for much of the 19th century, serving the country well as a production center during the War of 1812 up through the Civil War.
