  • PHILADELPHIA in the 1850'S As Described by British Travelers
    PHILADELPHIA IN THE 1850'S As Described by British Travelers By IVAN D. STEEN* D`URING the 1850's, Philadelphia, like most American cities, grew considerably in population. On the eve of the Civil War the Quaker City could boast of having well over half a million inhabitants, making it second only to New York among the cities of the United States.' But what kind of city was Phila- delphia, and what could it offer to its residents and its visitors? Some of the answers may be found in the accounts written by British visitors to the city during this decade. Travelers, then as now, were concerned about their accom- modations at the various stops in their tours. When visiting a large American city Englishmen usually took up residence at one of the spacious and magnificent hotels which they found there. These havens for weary travelers were more than just resting places; they were actually among the most interesting sights on the tour. American hotels, in their size and lavishness, and in the many services they offered to their guests, were completely un- like the type of hostelries that Englishmen had encountered in their own country. In Philadelphia the Girard House, a good-looking sandstone building, located on fashionable Chestnut Street, was the pre- ferred hotel among British visitors. It was here that William Makepeace Thackeray chose to reside while in Philadelphia in 1853.2 Most travelers thought highly of the Girard House. B. W. A. Sleigh, in 1852, called it "one of the most elegant estab- lishmernts in the States," and the next year William Chambers referred to it as being "of the first class."3 Similar comments were *Dr.

  • Vision Zero Action Plan 2025 Lorem Ipsum November 2020
    Vision Zero Action Plan 2025 Lorem ipsum November 2020 City of Philadelphia 1 Letter from the Mayor James F. Kenney Fellow Philadelphians, Over the past three years, the Vision Zero Task Force has brought state and local government officials side-by-side with community and advocacy groups to work towards a goal of zero traffic deaths. Building on that progress, the Task Force has outlined Philadelphia’s path forward to Vision Zero in this next Five-Year Action Plan. These efforts build on the establishment of the Office of Complete Streets, as well as the work of my colleagues in City Council and the State Legislature, who have championed efforts towards making the streets safer. Our accomplishments this past three years include the installation of automated speed cameras on Roosevelt Boulevard, the addition of over 37 miles of new and upgraded bike lanes, including over 10 miles of protected bike lanes, and over 58 miles of improved streets. This year, a combination of the global pandemic, an escalating economic recession, and unrest tied to systemic racism and police brutality have all taken a toll on Philadelphia. We have also seen a dramatic increase in traffic deaths. The month of July 2020 was the worst single month during my administration as 24 Philadelphians lost their lives in crashes. These deaths are unacceptable and preventable. When I took office in 2016, I pledged my commitment to making Philadelphia streets safe for everyone, regardless of age, physical ability, or choice of transportation. The path to achieving Vision Zero is not accomplished easily and Zero traffic deaths by 2030.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots, an event that jumpstarted the gay-rights revolution, a movement with strong Philadelphia roots. The City of Brotherly Love and Sisterly Affection joins cities across the world by marking the milestone with a jam-packed weekend of Pride events in mid-June, including the annual Philly Dyke March, a floating dance party on the Delaware River and the weekend’s main event, the PrideDay LGBT Parade and Festival, debuting a Philadelphia Pioneers On The Road To Stonewall float. The extended summer season sees a slew of international stars coming through town for live stage shows. Glam rocker Adam Lambert joins Queen for a night of music in South Philly, and lesbian comedian Hannah Gadsby hits Philly on her first U.S. tour. Philadelphia also hosts the nation’s largest Trans Wellness Conference and Stonewall @ 50, a thoughtful exhibition of works by LGBTQ artists that recounts the Stonewall Riots and its impact a half century later. Here’s a look at what to expect from Philadelphia’s LGBTQ scene this summer: Essential LGBTQ Pride Celebrations: • Philadelphia Pioneers On The Road To Stonewall Float Creation – For four days at Cherry Street Pier, the public can observe final construction of the Philadelphia Pioneers On The Road To Stonewall float, a creation of VISIT PHILADELPHIA®, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and Dr.

Obviously all of Springsteens many hits couldnt fit in one book but it does contain a good selection across the board of his many albums such as Born in the USA, Born to Run, Thunder Road and Glory Days to name a few. Theyre such amazing songs. We would definitely recommend the book to one who is interested in getting started in playing Springsteen.

    The Preservation Alliance for Greater Philadelphia is the sole owner of the following written and graphic material which cannot be disseminated or reproduced without the prior written approval of the Preservation Alliance. Contact: 215-546-1146 x 2. FROM REFUGE TO STRENGTH: THE RISE OF THE AFRICAN AMERICAN CHURCH IN PHILADELPHIA, 1787-1949 Matthew S. Hopper Preservation Alliance for Greater Philadelphia INTRODUCTION: Philadelphia has been a center of African American religious activity for more than two centuries, and much of its history and tradition has been preserved in Philadelphia’s historic African American religious buildings. Today there are nearly 100 church buildings of vital historic significance within Philadelphia’s city limits, several of which have been occupied by more than one historic African American congregation. Some of these church buildings were built by blacK congregations in times of intense racial prejudice or economic insecurity and stand today as monuments to the growing strength and solidarity of Philadelphia’s African American church. Other church buildings were purchased from previous owners, most often formerly wealthy white congregations. These buildings demonstrate the Church’s increasing economic power as well as Philadelphia’s evolving ethnic and religious demography. Both types of buildings help tell the story of the developing African American community in Philadelphia and, on a larger scale, the wider African American religious experience from colonial times to the present. The story told by Philadelphia’s historic African American church buildings is a story of the changing role of the blacK church in the city. Philadelphia’s first black churches emerged in the late 18th century as products of genuine Christian sentiment among several of the city’s blacK leaders, coupled with frustration with the hypocrisy of racism that blacK congregants experienced from predominantly white congregations and a need for community networKs with which to survive in an aggressive, racially-divided city.
