    Hey AK, good to see you in Philly. I only thought you did NY videos. You should do vids of the University City into Penn's campus, the U of P Health System district, to Drexel U campus into downtown. Also, the Fairmount district, over to the East River Drive near the Art Museum region down to City Hall. Main Street in Manyunk. Frankford Avenue near the El (similar to your Bensonhurst video) into the Northeast Philly. hiking trails in the park. This is a lovely city.

Did it for years and in 2017 was asked if I would transfer to start a center there. Jumped on it and lived there 2 1/2 years until the pandemic when I moved back to NYC.
