MDC 5,891 Posted November 9, 2019 There’s this strip of Lehigh Avenue in North Philly around 24th to 26th or so that is classic ghetto. There are 2-3 chicken / rib joints, a Chinese food place with the foot-thick bullet proof glass, a “checks cashed” place, a beauty salon, and a hardware store with a sign advertising bedbug removal. Also at least 5-6 churches - two or cathedrals but the rest are storefronts and one fortune teller. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nzoner 936 Posted November 9, 2019 While ubering recently I saw something I had never seen,a metal box anchored to a porch with an open padlock on it with a sign above it that read,"Please Mr. Postman...ok it actually said dear delivery people please put any packages and mail in this box and lock padlock."
