Look how they massacred my city of brotherly love.

I'd volunteer to go stand under it until a brick lands on my head but I doubt there's even much recourse, gotta be some funky legal limbo allowing it to sit and decay like that. Hopefully enough of the facade falls off that they're forced to redo the design and not have half the bricks in a running bond pattern and half just straight stacked.

Reply to JC or Brooklyn? by Amsterdaamed
Just moved to JC in November after 13+ years in Brooklyn (Williamsburg, South Slope, Prospect Heights, Crown Heights). There was definitely some hesitancy to leave the city and we hadn’t spent much time in JC but family being this way and a new kid in the picture helped push us to look. We instantly fell in love with the town especially Hamilton Park & Van Vorst & Paulus Hook areas. We got a place in Hamilton Park and love it. There’s a bit of a culture shock in just how low density the area feels. I see as many people between our place & Grove Street commute as you see in 10 seconds on the city side. Sometimes we miss the action but we’re still finding lots of great things in JC to get excited about. And it’s so much cleaner. Come check it out at least.

Ha, yea I think I'd like to do a bit of both, a garden and an outdoor kitchen since there's a rather large patio slab. The back park I'd like to make pretty lush and diverse. This lady's 7 foot wide garden is inspiring: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZo2mVCLT3Q&ab_channel=RosannesGarden

South is pretty much directly straight back & slightly west. The front of the house faces N/NE. Nice pot collection!

Ha, a straight down arial view will only get me so far. And a drone through the backyards, well. Maybe not the best way to introduce myself to the neighbors.

Would love to see some athletic folks just climb over the car to cross within the crosswalk.
