It's crazy that since I moved to Philly, how much progress Detroit is making. At the same time I read a whole lot of the regression going on. If Detroit could have some of the rebirth like Philly,...

I am so happy my job took me to Philly. At least now I can see real progress in a city. I feel sorry for all of you still stuck in Detroit that are forced to believe in a fake reality of growth. ...

Glad to see Detroit is just as fucked up as it was when I left for Philly in May. Can't wait to move back.

Just out of curiosity, has an ex-governor ever ran for mayor of Detroit?

Is this really a discussion? Jesus. People on this forum are ridiculous. It always has to be about Detroit and blacks not getting a fair shake. We are all Michiganders, after all. White, black,...

I'm sorry you spent so much time in H.P. and so little in Grosse Pointe Park.

I don't know about Philly. I've been living here for 4+ months and Chinatown seems pretty vibrant and safe. Located pretty much in Center City.

People Mover stairs....at the risk of looking like a total D-B. Best bet would be the JLA stairs as mentioned prior.

Unfortunately, that will never happen. Those trains are usually 5,000-7,000 feet in length. These are all cars pulled from the Jefferson/Mack plant. The reason they block the intersections you...

A while back I was interning in a certain "enclave" city of Detroit, not named Hamtramck. I had my screen saver as a picture of Detroit with a street sign that said "Kwame Killed my City". I left...

What is this? Since I've moved to Philly [[ work promotion, not really by choice ) a friend of mine has said there is some kind of crazy signage on the lower level of the Kales building..Packard cars...

From what I know...and now I'm living afar in Philadelphia, this building is a wreck. I know people who have actually climbed to the top... Apparently, this building is a disaster. Beautiful as...

The wife and I recently moved from Detroit to Philadelphia. Let me tell you, Philadelphia might be one of the dirtiest major cities I have been to.

We picked a neighborhood 3 miles from...

I hear that building is beyond repair. It has been set fire to many times over the years...bums, etc....it's too bad because it could be really cool.

I work all week...the last thing I want to do is do more work. Plus, I just run across Michigan Ave. to Casey's and grab a couple beers while they do the work.

Looks like I'm not the only one moving to Philly. Of course I'll miss the D, but it's only for a couple years...I hope.

Fortunately, I will have two weeks to look around as I am scheduled to be in S. Jersey/Philly for two weeks Apr 15-28 to give me time to train and find a place before heading back to Detroit to pack...

I appreciate all the information. We currently live downtown Detroit, so we are looking forward to getting something in Philly proper. Maybe a loft or row. I think we will try to do the one car...

Fair enough....I can understand why they may have been upset. And I apologize for my crudeness. Believe me, they are great to have. Unless I want to get over time, I always use a marker.

I know this isn't a Detroit topic, so my apologies.

Just got a promotion at work and they are moving us to S.Jersey/Philadelphia. Kind of shocked because I have to be there permanently in May. I...

I dont know why you would label them as this. They are quite handy and are actually more helpful in ensuring transportation safety. Also, it eliminates the need for me to be at the end of a 7,000...

Really, all cabooses were used for was a place for the brakemen to hang out. This is before we had motorola radios. We have only one caboose that we still use to make long "shove" moves to Mack...

I work for a railroad company as a conductor [[frieght) and it's funny how little has actually changed in terms of basic rail operations and equipment. However, there has been an enormous change in...

Who cares? I went to Catholic Central and when we got scored on we would chant "It's alright, it's okay, you will work for me some day!" And it would go back and forth from each side. Why is race...

It was open a few times last year too. I remember going there during opening day and a few others as well.
