Oh, the city is a huge pita. Hate dealing with them, but have to. Just make sure yours is zoned correctly. I assume it is since you had a lisence before and just need to renew. GL.

That doesn’t sound right. Mine was approved within 24 hours. Calling won’t do any good. Go here and click on “to make an appointment use the qless platform”. You should be able to make an appointment for tomorrow.

I agree. The problem isn’t dogs, it’s dog owners. I saw the pit who attacked my dog around my neighborhood for a few months after. Have not seen it in years since. I assume the dog was returned to paws.

My dog was attacked by a pit bull at a dog park in Philly. The owner of the 90 pound pit had just gotten it from paws 2 weeks prior. I had to fight the pit myself to get it off my dog. Was terrifying. Took my dog months and thousands in vet bills but thank god she recovered.

Feel bad for all involved in this story.

It’s a creek issue. Not gonna be solved.

It’s just a proposal at this point. City still needs to approve the plans.

Wow there is even an eagle flying above the left light if you zoom in

It means there is added risk that buyers should be aware of. Up for the buyer to evaluate if the risk is worth it

Crazy thing is the houses on both sides of this one have sold for high amounts within the last few years. I wonder if the owners are even aware of the potential issues.

This specific pic was texted to me by the guys I looked at the house with. But it you google mill creek overlay map philadlephia it looks like there are a bunch of versions.

I'm wondering if an inspector would catch this. They would see the strucutal issues, but would they know it's built on a creek? Maybe not all inspectors. My guys knew because they have been in the west philly real estate game for 40 years.

Apparently not. Check out this map of the overlay. The house I saw was in the circle. https://imgur.com/a/Zl1UBZd

Reminds me of the time I saw the chinook from my backyard in Manayunk. https://imgur.com/a/hwHY9vL
