| At the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month in the year two thousand six, the Armistice was remembered all over the world, including at the Memorial Park in Foglietta Plaza at Front & Dock Streets. Not a mile away, a group of civic minded groups gathered at Fishtown's Penn Treaty Park to take in the third of three walks along the central Delaware Riverfront. Organized by Penn Praxis, who along with the Philadelphia City Planning Commission is promoting a strategy by which the Riverfront can be developed publicly and positively, the walk went for roughly three miles from Penn Treaty to Port Richmond's Pulaski Park and included stops at Cramp's shipyard and the proposed site of the Pinnacle slots parlor. In attendance were Mayor John Street, State Representatives John Taylor and Mike O'Brien, PCPC executive director Janice Woodcock, Center City District's Paul Levy, and lots of interesting people like Philly Skyline's pals the Schmitt sisters and the Necessity for Ruins' Chris. |
