RISING RIVER:⚠️

Business owners along Main St in Manayunk can’t keep up.

Philadelphia officials are expecting the Schuylkill River to possibly reach 17.2 ft, which would be greater than the highest recorded total of 17 ft. @6abc #IdaAftermath pic.twitter.com/kuAZmnZUmR

This I have never seen before: from the Lower Merion side of Belmont Ave— no access to 76 or the bridge to Manayunk pic.twitter.com/elFcaWU5jj

Schuylkill right now, at Green Lane in Manayunk. This bridge is usually about 30 feet over the river. pic.twitter.com/i3g64npGz6

Amazing view from Shurs Lane in #Manayunk. The Schuylkill River in the background. The old Mad River doors forced open by floodwater. A deck now sitting at the corner of Shurs and Main Street. @CBSPhilly pic.twitter.com/sIi1Cm659W

Family Learning To Luge

Want to Try Luge? From Lower Merion, It Starts With a Drive to Lake Placid

I was watching the Luge on NBC over the weekend.

What Does My Fountain Pen Have In Common With The Former Lord & Taylor In Bala Cynwyd?

Both come out of the work of Raymond Loewy and his design firm. Raymond Loewy (1893–1986) helped define what modern America looked like in the mid-20th century. Through his design firm, he worked across an unusually wide range of industries—transportation, consumer products, branding, and architecture—often simultaneously. No one in history is more closely associated with […]

January 16-18: The Philly Pen Show — A Delightfully Analog Experience

f you’re looking for a break from screens, alerts, and endless scrolling, the Philly Pen Show might be the cure—at least temporarily. It’s an unapologetically analog event: pens, paper, ink, and the people who still care deeply about them. Whether you’re a serious collector, someone who misses the feel of writing by hand, or just […]
