A Bakery That Went To The Dogs

by Maria Merlino With names like Peanut Butter Cannoli, Pumpkin Spice Cupcake, Black and White Cookie and Sweet Potato and Flax Donut, one would think the goods served up in the Amelie’s Bark Shop would be great for your dessert.

But wait! These treats are for your tail-wagging companions, not for you to eat. Jackie Starker, 26, who just opened a brick-and-mortar store after achieving online success with her home-baked dog treats, is the newest East Passyunk Avenue business to open its doors.

“The treats are made with all natural, no GMO ingredients.

They’re not sweetened with sugar,” she explains. “Even BEAUTIFULLY handmade peanut-butter squirrels, snowflake cookies, Photo by Maria Merlino though I bake with human-grade food, the license I have is for birthday cakes and doughnuts going to the dogs? animal consumption. However, if you do eat one, you won’t get sick. They’re very fresh. Some need to be refrigerated, like the cupcakes with the cream cheese frosting, but the hard biscuits can be kept up to three weeks.”

Her mother, Marta Starker, an RN who got injured on the job, crochets the cat toys and pet sweaters.

She also sews cute bandanas. And just as Starker told me that her mom will custom-make clothing for your dog, a 130-lb. boxer came in wearing one of her sweaters.

“She took all the measurements and used the Eagles colors,” said Starker.

Her aunt does the stained glass pieces.

“The bond between a person and their fur baby is very strong,” she said. Her own fur baby, the eponymous Amelie, a seven-year-old Shih-Tzu mix, is also the mascot and

logo of her brand. Originally from Long Island, N.Y., Starker graduated from the University of the Arts and holds a Bachelor of Science degree in industrial design, which includes product design and graphics.

She and her boyfriend remodeled the interior of the store with hand-made shelving using re-claimed wood.

One of her mission statements is to support local businesses. “We have many antique prints, postcards and figurines from Hoof & Antler, a local market. Also we carry goods by local artists, Alyse Shulte, Random Lake, Oliver Candles, which make sprays for dogs with anxiety.

Our brand is exclusive with Bone Jour in Olde City and also Companion Pet Hospital at 5th & Cross Streets.”

Starker is also benevolent.

“Right now we’re selling PAWS calendars in the shop. 100% of the proceeds go directly to PAWS, the largest no-kill shelter in the city. I also donate gift baskets to local charities, auctions, and adoption events.

Putting in the time and goods to help homeless animals is so important. I can never lose sight on that,” she said.

She is also collaborating with Fabric Horse to make custom dog carriers with recycled materials, such as yoga mats. They will have a leash attachment point and a hole for the dog’s head to poke through.

Here’s your chance to enjoy a Swedish treat at the American Swedish Historical Museum on Saturday, Feb. 7, 2015 at 11 a.m.

Experience a decadent Swedish treat: stop by the American Swedish Historical Museum for a delicious semla, a rich puff pastry filled with almond paste and whipped cream.

The popular tradition of eating semlor this time of year originates from a time when Sweden was still a Catholic country and fasting was customary 40 days before Easter.

The days prior to Lent, on the other hand, included a big feast filled with plenty of food and semlor.

Nowadays, Swedes skip Lent but still enjoy their semlor. The annual start to eating them is even marked in the Swedish calendar and called Fat Tuesday (Fettisdagen), usually occurring in February.

However, many Swedes are

Some eat them in a bowl with hot milk, a practice referred to as Hetvägg (Hot Wall).

Semla was also the favorite pastry of the Swedish King Adolf Fredrik, who ruled in the mid-18th century. A rumor claims that he died from having too many at once, which is actually what he is most famous for in Sweden today.

At Semlor and a Movie on Saturday, Feb. 7, you can enjoy homemade semlor along with strong coffee, followed (Cont. Page 23)

After meeting with community leaders in South Philadelphia recently, the City Planning Commission has come up with a consensus of what is most on the minds of the majority of South Philadelphians.

These included goals sought for the area of South District which is bounded by Washington Avenue, the Delaware River, and Interstate 76 on the south and west. It includes Grays Ferry, East Passyunk, Pennsport, and Point Breeze, among other neighborhoods.

It is one of 18 district plans being completed by the Planning Commission as part of the Philadelphia 2035 citywide vision process. The goals of the project include updating the zoning maps, enhancing the public realm,

ray of educational hope, it is possible that many would rise from the dead, and begin an educational quest. With education, and a record expungement, opens a whole new world for those ex-offenders.

Judge DeLeon is hoping empowering legislation will be adopted by the Courts of Pennsylvania. He has already met with members of the General Assembly and he is seeking quick action.

Judge DeLeon notes facts galore prove educational opportunities are the real key to turning certain segments of our citizens into productive individuals: “This program adds one more key step in their full rehabilitation. We need to also be able to offer eligible ex-offenders the ability to have their records expunged and in obvious cases, even pardoned.”

“Based on the aforementioned premise, I believe we need to implement my ‘Operation Fresh Start’ proposal.”

Operation Fresh Start would tar-

get female and male felons: Single moms, employed and unemployed between ages of 15-60 years would be eligible. High-school drop-outs with criminal records (15-60 years); High-school drop-outs (15-60 years); High-school graduates, no jobs; and GED recipients, no jobs.

“There is no one magic cure for violence,” admits Judge DeLeon.

Crime, in particular violent crime, is as complex a phenomenon as can exist in a big city. Reducing it requires a variety of approaches touching a range of factors. Men and women newly released from prison are an important group to reach. Paying attention to them as they reenter society is one of the prongs of an effective crime-fighting strategy.”

Judge DeLeon noted low-quality education is linked to high drop-out rates which produce jobless young men and women who commit crimes and go to prison, where they are not rehabilitated, but hardened,

and become more likely to commit further crimes.

According to Judge DeLeon, “Operation Fresh Start” would begin to involve offenders as they begin to serve their sentences. He said, “We know there is very little successful effort to rehabilitate nonviolent offenders, leading some to eventually become violent.”

“Today, we treat everybody the same. That is why we need a new model. With more than 50,000 state prisoners – up 484% since 1980 – and a soaring recidivism rate, Pennsylvania is constantly building new prisons at an average cost of $200 million. That money would be better spent on community and rehabilitative programs for nonviolent offenders, thus freeing space for violent criminals who need to be imprisoned.”

Judge DeLeon indicates there are guidelines for this program already in effect. First initiative would be to allow Judges to keep control of the

prisoner’s progress as he or she serves out their sentence, and decide whether or not those prisoners may qualify to have their records expunged. The second initiative would be to do the same for ex-offenders now out of judicial jurisdiction to go before a Board made up of their community’s leaders and members whose recommendation ex-offenders would need to benefit from this program.

Judge DeLeon believes youthful members from the ex-offender’s family would see the benefits of completing high school or advanced education, as key to a successful career now open to ex-offenders.

Judge DeLeon noted, “Malcolm X summed up why such a program needs to be adopted now. He said ‘the only one capable of organizing the man on the street is the man who is unacceptable to the establishment.

They don’t trust the other kind.

They don’t know who controls his actions.’”

The Public Record • January 22, 2015

Recidivism can be reduced through expungement and pardons, thereby strengthening the family structure among poor minorities.

“This theory needs to be tested,” said Judge James DeLeon, of the Philadelphia Municipal Court, “because we have been losing the war against crime. However, we can win that war if we begin to look at former inmates as assets and not debits and give them a major boost by allowing them to expunge their records and seek educational opportunities if needed.”

To make that war winnable, Judge DeLeon has developed a program called “Operation Fresh Start.” Not all those convicted of felonies would be eligible under the program, explains Judge DeLeon.

“For the most part, we find they lose the drive to be productive, and become resourceful, contributing members of society. Many lapse back into recidivism.

“If these citizens can be given a

With the recent announcement Allegheny Court of Common Pleas by Judge Dwayne Woodruff he intends to run for Supreme Court, the new question in the minds of the county chairs from both parties is can we get a consensus on a slate either of both party endorsed candidates or their own party slate?

Woodruff is notable for having played 12 seasons as a defensive back for the Pittsburgh Steelers, where he served as team captain, won the team’s MVP award in 1982, and played in Super Bowl XIV during his rookie year in 1980. Who dare lock out this icon?

Also, bringing in a big bloc of political support on his own is Adams County President Judge Michael George. Things are already looking promising for the Adams County judge.

George led the GOP’s Central Caucus straw poll. George is currently serving his second

10-year term as a judge. He chairs the Adams County Criminal Justice Advisory Board, a position he has held since its beginning in 2007.

George joins fellow Republican candidates Superior Court Judge Cheryl Lynn Allen and Commonwealth Court Judge Renee Cohn Jubelirer, as well as Supreme Court Justice Correale Stevens, running for reelection. Stevens was appointed by Gov. Tom Corbett to complete Joan Orie Melvin’s term, which ends in January 2016.

Superior Court Judge John Bender has also expressed interest in the race but has not declared.

In addition to Judge Woodruff, other Democrats who have thrown their hats into the ring include three judges on the Superior Court, Christine Donohue, Anne Lazarus and David Wecht, as well as Jefferson Co. Judge John Foradora.

This election will result in “a sea change on the court,” said Lynn Marks, director of the judicial-reform advocacy group Pennsylvanians for Modern Courts, as the old and new justices strive to restore respectability to a court whose image has been tarnished by scandal in recent years.

There also are two open seats on the intermediate appellate court – one each on the Superior and Commonwealth Courts – but those campaigns may be obscured by all the commotion at the top of the ticket.

Our Opinion

We Wonder How

Another Opinion

Roe V. Wade Still Not Settled something much more than a medical procedure. Abortion destroys a human life.

That the unborn is a human life is becoming more apparent than ever before. New 4D ultrasounds show amazing details of the life growing in the womb. Ultrasounds show preborn babies smiling, turning somersaults, or sucking their thumbs. New research is pointing to the humanity of preborn babies, too. One study from the University of Florida found babies begin to learn nursery rhymes in the womb.

If Roe v. Wade has settled abortion law, why are so many women speaking out about how abortion hurt their lives? Through the Silent No More Awareness Campaign, thousands of courageous

women speak out about their abortions and share their regrets, grief, and healing. They speak because they want other women to know that there always is something better than abortion for them and their babies.

If Roe v. Wade is settled, why are millions of young adults flocking to the pro-life cause? Young adults in high schools, colleges and communities all across the US are working to provide life-affirming support for pregnant and parenting women and their families. Pro-life student clubs outnumber pro-choice clubs by more than two to one, according to Students for Life.

If Roe v. Wade is settled, why do Americans continue to elect pro-life legislators? In the past four years, state legislators passed 231 pro-life laws, according to the Guttmacher Institute. And in November, Americans elected even more pro-life leaders to our state and federal legislatures.

If Roe v. Wade is settled, why do most Americans oppose what Roe did? Four decades after Roe, a majority

of Americans (58%) still believe abortion should be legal in only a few circumstances or not at all, according to a 2014 Gallup poll.

Roe, coupled with companion ruling Doe v. Bolton, opened the doors to abortion on demand through all nine months of pregnancy in 1973.

Roe created a no-limits abortion scene: no parental consent requirement for minors, no requirement to provide women with basic information about abortion risks and alternatives prior to the procedure, no medical regulations or accountability standards for abortion centers, no restrictions on abortions after the baby is viable. Thankfully, in the past 42 years, pro-lifers have worked to enact many of these common-sense regulatory measures that most Americans approve.

Roe v. Wade was a radical decision that opened the doors to the legal destruction of 57 million preborn babies. Now more than ever, it is clear that Roe v. Wade was bad case law. There are better solutions to our problems than killing the smallest and most vulnerable among us.

by Ms. Micaiah Bilger, Education Director, PA Pro-Life Federation It has been 42 years since the U.S. Supreme Court ruled on the issue of abortion in the well-known case Roe v.

Wade.

Abortion advocates claim Roe is settled case law. But after more than four decades, abortion remains one of the most-contentious issues in our society.

Why? If abortion is simply a medical procedure to remove a blob of tissue, it should not be controversial. If abortion is just a medical procedure, why do many people characterize it as a difficult decision, a necessary evil?

Most Americans are troubled by abortion because they recognize that abortion is

We need first to congratulate the team of Wolf-Stack for breaking the traditional swing of gubernatorial administrations from every eight years – at which time the pendulum of state control switches to the opposition party – to four.

We need then to see how Gov. Tom Wolf and his sidekick Lt. Gov. Mike Stack do the things that need to be done and to see how they “will make government work,” as Wolf promised in his inaugural speech. Will this be the first time since Gov. Milton Shapp that has actually happened?

We look for the first signs Gov. Wolf’s apolitical background won’t stand in his way of getting things done. He can make decisions and no doubt they will be good ones.

But he needs the approval of the majority of the 202 members in the State House and the 50 in the Senate. He has a bloc committed to him by his party, but for majority votes stamping approval on his decision making, he needs to woo members of a very-unhappy party. Those GOP members strongly feel they could have accomplished much had Gov. Tom Corbett been voted back for another four years.

But mistakes were made by Corbett, which is why Wolf wisely decreed education was his first priority.

We wish him well, as he begins moving his agenda through a gauntlet of General Assembly members who don’t wish him well at this moment in time.

This year there will be five statewide appellate-court justice positions on the ballot. Three of those openings are on the Commonwealth’s Supreme Court. There have not been so many vacant Pennsylvania Supreme Court seats since the 1700s.

The openings are the result of the retirement of CHIEF JUSTICE RON CASTILLE, who reached the mandatory retirement age; JUSTICE SEAMUS McCAFFERY, who chose to retire amid a scandal; and JUSTICE JOAN ORIE MELVIN, who was convicted of a political corruption.

Currently 10 people are hoping to be the Republican candidates, including Superior Court JUDGES JUDY OLSEN, CHERYL ALLEN, JOHN BENDER and RENEE COHN JUBELIRER. Former Superior Court Judge and State Rep. CORREALE STEVENS is also interested. Stevens is currently on the Supreme Court as he was appointed to replace Orie Melvin until this year’s judicial election. Commonwealth Court judge and Bucks County native ANNE COVEY is also interested, as well as Philadelphia Common Pleas Court JUDGE PAUL PANEPINTO. Former Secretary of Labor & Industry in the Corbett administration JULIA HEARTHWAY is running, as is Montour County DISTRICT ATTORNEY REBECCA WARREN. There are also one opening each on the Superior and Commonwealth Courts. There are four candidates for Superior Court, including Philadelphia Municipal COURT JUDGE BRAD MOSS.

Well folks, we have a new Governor.

On Tuesday, Tom Wolf officially became Pennsylvania’s 46th leader. He won the office from incumbent Gov. Tom Corbett in November and spent most of the last half of 2014 getting ready to head to the Governor’s Mansion in Harrisburg.

I watched some of the inauguration and found myself comparing Wolf’s swearing-in to both of President Barack Obama’s. Compared to those, Wolf’s inauguration was a much more-accessible affair.

Emceed by former Gov. Ed Rendell, Wolf and the assorted attendees at the inauguration including former Govs. Corbett, Mark Schweiker and Tom Ridge, listened to choirs and heard speeches from Lt. Gov. Mike Stack and the new Governor.

It was a very laidback affair. I mean, hey, the Official Governor’s Vehicle is the Jeep that Wolf drove in his campaign commercials… If that’s not laid back, nothing is.

In his address, Wolf said his administration would try and bring Pennsylvania “jobs that pay, schools that teach, and a government that works.”

I found myself saying, “Good luck with that.…”

I don’t mean to be a cynic right off the bat, but Gov. Wolf had the distinction of being one of the few gubernatorial candidates I’ve seen who had no coattails to work off of. The main reason he was taking the oath of office on Tuesday instead Tom Corbett is because Corbett managed to tick off a cross-section of people so diverse there was no way he was going to win reelection.

Yo! Here we go again with these thoughts about clotheslines sent to me by Joanne M. We are probably the last generation that will remember what a clothesline was. And in lots of places, they are illegal. It’s the poem at the end that’s the best!

Remembering mom’s clothesline: I can hear my mother now. The basic rules for clotheslines: (If you don’t even know what clotheslines are, you probably will not understand this.)

1. You had to hang the socks by the toes, not the top. 2. You hung pants by the bottom/cuffs, not the waistbands. 3. You had to wash the clothesline(s) before hanging any clothes – walk the entire length of each line with a damp cloth around the lines. 4. You had to hang the clothes in a certain order, and always hang whites with whites, and hang them first. 5. You never hung a shirt by the shoulders – always by the tail! What would the neighbors think? 6. Wash day on a Monday! Never hang clothes on the weekend, or on Sunday, for Heaven’s sake! 7. Hang the sheets and towels on the outside lines so you could hide your “unmentionables” in the middle (perverts & busybodies, y’know!) 8. It didn’t matter if it was sub-zero weather; clothes would “freeze-dry.” 9. Always gather the clothespins when taking down dry clothes! Pins left on the lines were “tacky”! 10. If you were efficient, you would align the clothes up so that each item did not need two clothespins, but shared one of the clothespins with the next washed item. 11.

Clothes off of the line before dinner time, neatly folded in the clothes basket, and ready to be ironed. Ironed? Well, that’s a whole other subject! And now for a poem.

A clothesline was a news forecast, to neighbors passing by, there were no secrets you could keep, when clothes were hung to dry. It also was a friendly link, for neighbors always knew if company had stopped on by, to spend a night or two.

For then you’d see the “fancy sheets,” and towels upon the line; you’d see the “company tablecloths,” with intricate designs.

The line announced a baby’s birth from folks who lived inside, as brand-new infant clothes were hung, so carefully with pride!

Her crowning achievement was the GAS WORKS NIX after lack of good engagement with Council by the administration. Tasco’s “Tarheel thinking” was on target there. I feel like asking a judge to issue an order to prevent her leaving. Tasco will still be one of THE most-powerful ward leaders.

Sam hates driving up the Schuylkill Expressway to the Pennsylvania Turnpike and then push on to Harrisburg. But in order to do his reporting well, he had to attend the inaugural ceremonies. Thank God, it wasn’t as cold as it normally is this time of the year as the wind swirls around the reviewing stand. Thank God, also, we didn’t have to watch a parade stream by as was the tradition a couple decades ago.

Almost everybody who is anybody from the city was there. All enjoyed themselves, even the Republicans, anxious to learn who the Dems were considering as front runners in their efforts to regain control of the State Supreme Court. Judges were all over the place, even the older ones were seen partying around the Hershey Hotel ballrooms Tuesday night.

COUNCILWOMAN CINDY BASS is believed drawing the line to developer exploitation in the heart of her district. She will be going head to head with forces reportedly tied close to MAYOR MICHAEL NUTTER, who, we understand, didn’t let her know of “their” community meeting.

Looking at how the District Council persons have been behaving, we feel none will have any primary opposition worth consideration in the primary. That includes the GOP’s 10TH DIST. COUNCILMAN BRIAN O’NEILL. With KEN TRUJILLO no longer in race for Mayor, the question reoccurs: Will CONTROLLER ALAN BUTKOVITZ reenter the race?

We don’t think so, since he has a lot to lose if he fails in the primary. But who knows what goes on in the hearts of pols?

Over 160 attorneys have inquired with the local Bar Association to see if they will earn their recommendation should they file. Not sure they realize, few are the judicial candidates who have lost races because that group did not recommend them. Which reminds us: Even the Inkie doesn’t seem to have much effect on getting voters to follow their recommendations, especially in primaries.

those retirement funds and get a debt discharge.

I understand why some people spend their retirement money on dischargeable debts before bankruptcy. Usually, they are just so used to paying their debts that they will employ any legal means to keep doing so. Bankruptcy may be something in their shadowy awareness, but it certainly sounds scary and to be avoided at all costs. People

may even have the more misguided idea that “saving their credit” is vitally important.

(Hint: saving your credit when in serious financial peril is like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.)

If you are operating with a permanent deficit and don’t expect it to change, do not draw down your retirement funds to feed that deficit awaiting the day when you have nothing. Have the courage to read the writing on the wall and learn your bankruptcy options. The bankruptcy system protects your retirement funds for a reason.

No one wants you to be indigent in your old age.

SC Safeguards Client Funds Attorneys investing funds for clients will be subject to stricter standards of accountability under new rules adopted by the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania.

The changes, which enhance accountability when attorneys invest client funds, take effect in 60 days.

“The integrity of our legal system depends a great deal on the professionalism and accountability of attorneys,” said Chief Justice of Pennsylvania Ronald D. Castille.

“These new rules serve as a reminder that attorneys are obligated to live up to the trust people put in them by working diligently and honestly or face

serious consequences.”

Among the important rule changes is the addition of a new Rule of Professional Conduct that prohibits a lawyer from brokering, selling or offering to place an investment for a client unless the attorney is licensed to do so, and as long as he or she does not have disqualifying financial interests in the transaction. Other key provisions require that financial records be more accessible to the attorney disciplinary bodies examining alleged misappropriation of trust accounts, and streamline the investigative procedures.

The rule amendments also promote the prompt and com-

MIXMASTER MIKE Mayor Nutter’s Federal Priority Part 193/200

Mayor Michael Nutter recently told a presidential task force that cities need (federal) help fighting “neighborhood terrorists.” He also may be a proponent of the same ingredient that stirred the pot that fomented local terrorists to react to unharmonious, or terroristic sounds. He said: “We have homegrown, neighborhood terrorists who terrorize our children when they go to school every day, who terrorize our old folks.. and terrorize folks who are just going to work.”

In a former sideline, the mayor was a disk jockey, known as “Mixmaster Mike.”

Under his controlled sounds, certain individuals may have become “neighborhood terrorists” that today, the mayor is against.

Reinforcing an ignorance about bringing quality music to the people, his honor laid the foundation for pied piper “JAY Z” and his gang of rappers/noisicians to serenade Philadelphians on national holidays in 2013 and 2014, i.e., bookings on July 4th and Labor Day. “For the songs we sing are results of such, or are the results of such from the songs we sing.”

—Nicola Argentina (c) 2015

plete disengagement from the practice of law by a suspended or disbarred attorney found to have stolen or mishandled client funds.

A working group of representatives of the Disciplinary Board of the Supreme Court helped shape and recommend the changes with public input.

The work followed a number of high-profile incidents, including cases in which millions of dollars in losses were incurred by attorneys investing client funds.

Although existing rules already provide for the suspension or disbarment of an attorney for misappropriating client funds, many clients are

not fully compensated for their losses. Amendments to the Pennsylvania Rules of Professional Conduct and the Rules of Disciplinary Enforcement made today aim to curb such losses.

Victims may file claims with the Pennsylvania Lawyers Fund for Client Security for reimbursable losses from a dishonest attorney.

However, some claimants are not fully compensated because the maximum payout is capped at $100,000.

Pennsylvania has more than 65,000 attorneys engaged in the active practice of law.

Less than 1% of those attorneys are involved in misconduct investment claims.

Health Partners Plans Teams Up With Penn Health Partners Plans, a local health plan serving more than 190,000 members in the Greater Philadelphia region and the University of Pennsylvania Health System, a diverse clinical care organization in Philadelphia, have signed a provider contract that will increase access to quality care in Philadelphia for Health Partners Medicare members.

The Health Partners Plans Medicare network of providers currently boasts nearly 5,000 practitioners from various hospitals and practices throughout the region. This new agreement expands our network to include more than 1,300 additional physicians from the University of Pennsylvania Health System’s extensive network of practices and their four hospitals: Hospital

of the University of Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania Hospital, Penn Presbyterian Medical Center, and Chester County Hospital. Penn Wissahickon Hospice is also a part of UPHS. “We are constantly looking to add highly skilled and qualified medical professionals to our network to better serve all of our members,” said William S. George, Health Partners Plans’ president and CEO. “The University of Pennsylvania Health System has a long history of medical leadership in the region.

With their service to our Medicaid and CHIP, we are proud of our long-standing relationship with University of Pennsylvania Health System and are thrilled that their esteemed providers will now be caring for our Medicare population.

Most of the candidates have noted they will not run if not endorsed. I believe Stevens and Allen will be challenged due to their ages (both 68) and would only be able to serve two of the 10-year term owing the mandatory retirement age of 70. Covey is rumored to have strong support, as does Cohn Jubelirer.

PAGOP will also hold its annual Lincoln Dinner. The keynote speaker this year will be former Texas GOV. RICK PERRY, who is expected to run in the 2016 presidential primary.

Locally, there has been little noise about Republican candidates for Common Pleas or Municipal Court. There are a number of candidates for the five Republican City Council at-Large slots.

Former police officer and Realtor LOU LANNI formally announced his candidacy last year.

Tuesday evening, incumbent DENNIS O’BRIEN announced he was seeking another term at an event at the Racquet Club of Philadelphia. Incumbent DAVID OH is expected to announce his candidacy on Wednesday evening at an event at the Union League.

Eyes S. Philly’s Future (Cont. From Page 2) trict, as well as areas of opportunity. Among the strengths identified by attendees, according to a summary from the the Planning Commission, were a number of parks and recreation centers, the Italian Market, commercial corridors on South 7th Street and East Passyunk Avenue, and other centers of commerce. Attendees named diversity, walkability, bikeability, and food access as district-wide strengths.

District-wide weaknesses include lack of green space and tree cover and difficult mobility from east to west. Attendees also said that Grays Ferry Avenue, Columbus Boulevard, the Snyder station on the Broad Street Line and the entire neighborhood of Point Breeze were weaknesses.

PlanPhilly asked Nicole Ozdemir, a community planner, what specifically about Point Breeze was seen as a weakness in the South District.

“I think that people really looked to Point Breeze Avenue as a commercial corridor that needed help,” Ozdemir said, “and they want to see that kind of get better and be a better corridor.”

Ozdemir said that around 100 people attended the event, which is roughly on par with the first meetings for other district plans, and that the residents came from all across the district. She said the one neighborhood that had the lowest turnout was Grays Ferry, which makes up the westernmost portion of the South District. She said the Commission is working on improving outreach in Grays Ferry before the next meeting, which is in February.

Barriers in the district include Washington Avenue, the 25th Street Viaduct, Snyder Avenue, Columbus Boulevard—all areas that could serve to connect neighborhoods, rather than separate them.
