While we have your attention, let’s hip you to some Record Store Day appearances: Meg Baird will be performing at AKA Music in Old City, Kurt Vile will be performing at [...]

It was going to be strictly coffee but then I started to get carried away. I made it for my sister/roommate Molly after I promised [...]

Click to enlarge. Reader Sean Callahan graciously filled in another gap in our ever-widening hand-drawn neighborhood map project with this map of Fitler Square. It’s a bit food-and-drink-heavy, and there’s no mention of the late, great Judy Garland Park but hey, that’s gentrification for you. These maps, we suppose, are more about as we are [...]

When we ran this clip yesterday of artist Steve Powers speaking about his “Love Letter” mural project in West Philly, one commenter noted that, as awesome as Powers and his project are, how come there’s still been no submission for a hand-drawn map of West Philly?

Reader Sarah Peoples really brought her A game when it came to doing this map of one of the City’s oft-overlooked ‘hoods, Brewerytown. “Brewerytown is an amazing neighborhood deserving of recognition.” says Sarah, and we think you’ll agree.

We were lucky enough to receive TWO maps of Manayunk from readers, both of which confirmed something we’d always even suspected: Even people who live there have had enough of the douchebag bars that have all but totally claimed Manayunk’s identity from itself. But look, there is good and [...]

Click to enlarge. After Thursday’s deluge of hand-drawn neighborhood maps, you’d think that the amateur cartographer population of Philadelphia would be exhausted. Not so! Above, Meghan McAllister‘s handy eating and drinking map of Fairmount, where the men have frontwards baby backpacks and the women do, too — you know, for keeping the men. Hiyo! Ah, [...]

Click to enlarge. We conclude our map blowout today with this one by Phileb commenter bhiladelphia, who sent his map in with the query, “Does this even count as a neighborhood?” Our answer is a resounding YES. We’ve discussed the Eraserhood before — it’s the bizarre no-man’s land east of Broad and south of Spring [...]

There’s definitely a lot of overlap between this map and the one of Norris Square/Olde Kensington we ran earlier, but you can beat reader Katie I.‘s eye for detail — also, she made a sweet little logo!

Click to enlarge. Pennsport: It’s more than just the awesomest titty bar in the city. In fact, it’s a whole neighborhood! And while we love reader Bobby D‘s map — and not just for the sublime accidental phrase “Chinese my Wawa gas” — we do wish he’d put the REAL Pennsport here. Anybody else want [...]

Says amateur cartographer Sara: “I’m submitting this map for your blog, but what I’m really getting at is trying to smoke Jenny and Adriana out of their hole and getting them to admit to the world when they are finally, at long last, going to open the 5th and Poplar burger joint [...]

Says mapper Jon Goff: “I made this for some friends moving to Fishtown last year. Please note that it references ‘Secret Fishtown.’” OK, but, well, isn’t the first rule of living in Fishtown that there are no secrets? Ahem. Anybody else want to join in the fun?

Click to enlarge. Responding to our call the other day for hand-drawn neighborhood maps, here’s the first submission by @thedaveclarke. His chosen ‘hood? Old City, the very cradle of liberty. Things to love here: That he ran out of green marker so park areas are both green and white, Charlie’s Bar (and Cafe Ole) in [...]
