West Philly, Look Up! (Hint 1 added)

Posted on 29 June 2012 by Mike Lyons

Update: Mike C. got it. “Is that the old West Philly High?” It is indeed.

The old West Philly High is still for sale so no one is sure what will become of these little sculptures outside. They’re cool.

 

Think you know your hood? This is part of a photo that was taken somewhere in the area between 52nd to 40th streets, Market to Kingsessing. We will zoom it out each day until someone gets it right. Register your guess in the comments and be specific about the location.

The last time we did this, Andy L. got it in about 10 minutes. Hopefully this one is more challenging.

One guess per person per day please.

Hint 1: To help out a little, we are reducing the size of the area. So lets say 42nd to 49th streets, Market to Baltimore.

Look Up! Locate this photo. Update: Solved!

Update: Andy L. knows the hood! He solved this one pretty quickly. It’s the town crier bulletin board near 40th and Pine. See comments below.

Think you know the neighborhood? Where was this photo taken? Each morning we’ll zoom out a little until someone guesses right. Place your guess in the comments. One guess per person per day please.

This one is near 45th and Spruce.

 
We’ve seen more and more of these little calls for an art-free world popping up around the neighborhood for a while. We have noticed retorts on a lot of them. Have you seen any?
