Philly Day Trip May 5th

by Redliner - last update: May 7, 2004

Happy Cinco de Mayo

Old City District in Philadelphia
I spent the day in Philadephia so I thought I would share some photos.

Philly definately has an east coast feel to it. It's an old city by US standards...seeing buildings go back to 1700s is interesting. I walked through what I perceived as a 'trendy' area called Old City District. There were nice cobble stone streets and older buildings with nice restaurants, bars and shops! Word has it that the cast of MTV's Real World Philly is in town filming and that they live in Old City District.
Philadephia City Hall

City Hall

Nice ornate archetecture....you don't see this kind of detail in buildings anymore!
Philadephia's City Hall

Post 9/11 security.. Philadelphia City Hall

Since 9/11 - Most government buildings have placed barracades to prevent terrorist from getting close. Here's Philadephia City Hall's version.... ;-)
Coyote Ugly, Phiadephia

Coyote Ugly - A national monument?

Coyote Ugly in Old City District is a great example of how they convert these old buildings into bars/clubs/restaurants...it's very interesting.

 I echo BorderHopper's comments. Fantastic opening photo. Did you use Photoshop layers?
