he First African Baptist Church, 1608 Christian St., is in trouble. The nearly 110-year-old church, founded by freed African-Americans in what is now considered Chinatown even before the congregation moved to Graduate Hospital, is suffering from some structural deficiencies and the pastor is ready to sell the property to developer Gary Jonas for more than $3 million.

Local preservationists are rushing to make sure that the building be at least considered for historic protection. A minority of congregants is fighting the pastor’s ability to sell the parcel. And just like the Royal Theater, 1542 South St., another vestige of South Philly’s rich black history, the church stands as a symbol of rapid neighborhood changes that often reflect a new, whiter population influx. A site where Booker T. Washington once spoke could soon be million-dollar town homes.

“We’re very aware of the structural challenges facing the First African Baptist Church, and we’re monitoring the situation – there’s not much involvement for us this point,� Lauren Vidas, South of South Neighborhood Association (SOSNA) chair, said. “We think they’re an important part of the neighborhood, and we’d like to see the church stay, but we understand the financial challenges facing the institution.� Vidas shared a story about a neighbor who tripped and broke an ankle

walking on the Montrose Street side of the church. The City’s Licenses and Inspection (L&I) was called and, days later, a fence was up on the South 16th Street side protecting the sidewalk and pedestrians from potentially dangerous structural disrepair. “There was an L&I hearing last week and the ultimate outcome of that is there will be a full engineering assessment to really determine how fragile the building is,� Patrick Grossi, director of advocacy for the ASS 16C@16 ^OUS ,,

To the Editor: The board of directors of Tolentine Community Center and Development Corporation regretfully announces that as of Aug. 29, Tolentine will suspend all community services now provided at 1025-33 Mifflin St. Tolentine’s attempts over the past two years to negotiate a city lease extension or a new city lease have not been successful. On Aug. 20, Tolentine was officially notified in writing by Michael DiBerardinis, commissioner of the Parks and Recreation Department, that, “the city will not lease the recreation center or any part of it to�

Tolentine. Tolentine is informed, pursuant to city contracts, the city will staff the property with Parks and Recreation employees. Tolentine is informed the city will likely be unable to offer services for up to a year. Effective Aug. 29, the city property located at 1025-33 Mifflin Street shall no longer be referred to as the Tolentine Community Center. It will not offer a fall afterschool program in September. Tolentine particularly regrets it will be unable to provide employment to the teachers, counselors, van drivers and college students who have served the com-

munity so well over the years. Over the 25-year lease, Tolentine maintained, operated and managed the Mifflin Street property at its cost; providing valuable community services, including an afterschool program, toddler playgroups, summer camp, senior programs, day care programs, open court basketball; hosting men’s, women’s and youth volleyball and basketball leagues, Catholic Youth Organization volleyball and basketball leagues, charter school basketball leagues, health seminars, GED and ESL courses, flea markets, karate classes, dance classes, exercise classes, youth dances, investors clubs, language classes, LEGO club, string band concerts, carnivals, and holiday events. Services were provided through grants and donations and some user fees.

To the Editor: The South Philly Sausage Festival is four weeks away. All proceeds from the festival will go toward the cleaning program for West Passyunk and Snyder avenues. This is a kid-friendly, community event. There will be moonbounces, face painting, local restaurants serving up sausage dishes and autumn craft brews. Beer tickets the day of the festival will cost $6 per ticket. Visit southphillysausagefest.com for discounted pricing (before Aug. 31). I hope to see you there, as it’s going to be a really great event. Thank you to the Newbold CDC for hosting it. We will have West Passyunk T-shirts and hoodies for sale. 8SaaWQO 5]cZR ^`SaWRS\b ESab >Oaagc\Y <SWUVP]`a /aa]QWObW]\ Comment on these letters or topics at southphillyreview.com/opinion/letters.

n Aug. 15, a jury convicted Aaron Fitzpatrick, whom court records list as having a 19148 zip code, of shooting Tiffany Gillespie to death in 2012. Common /O`]\ 4Wbh^Ob`WQY Pleas Judge Steven Geroff sentenced the 22-year-old to a mandatory term of life in prison based on the first-degree murder conviction and issued another such stretch because of a third-degree conviction based on the victim’s pregnant status. On Feb. 16, ’12, Fitzpatrick told detectives the 24-year-old female informed him of her pregnancy and claimed the baby was his. He added that he served as a drug dealer to Gillespie, who compensated him through sexual activity. On the fateful day, he expressed frustration because she kept texting him to inquire about drugs and ventured to her home on the 2300 block of South Mildred Street. He informed authorities, who through help from DNA testing announced he was not the patriarch of the 5-month-old fetus, that he gave her crack cocaine and that having grown tired of her desire to argue, he shot her in the back of the head within the Lower Moyamensing residence. Her matriarch found the deceased mother of two later that morning. Fitzpatrick began his sentence at Graterford Prison Aug. 19.

A^OQS W\dORS` A South of South woman became the victim of a home invasion Tuesday. Responding to a call on the 700 block of South 22nd Street at 6 p.m., police met with the complainant, learning from her that she was upstairs when an unknown male placed her in a chokehold, placed a knife to her neck and demanded her wallet, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. He forced her into the front bedroom to retrieve the wallet and following his receipt of $80, he picked up a cell phone charger and tied

N s o u t h p h i l l y r e v i e w. c o m

her hands. He also nabbed her Dell laptop computer, two Apple iPads and an LG G-4 cell phone. The victim, who suffered a minor cut to her right hand and abrasions to her neck that did not require immediate medical attention and who ran to a nearby coffee shop where employees untied her hands, described the criminal as black, 17 to 19 years old, 5-foot-9 and 160 pounds; having a dark complexion; and wearing a white T-shirt and black jogging pants. Call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

3fQSaaWdS T]`QS A male received treatment following a gunman’s tirade in Point Breeze. At 12:30 a.m. Aug. 12, police responded to a radio call for a case at Methodist Hospital, where they met with the injured complainant, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. They learned that while he was walking on the 2000 block of Dickinson Street, 50 to 60 gunshots rang out, with a silver car bearing tinted windows turning off the block. Running to avoid the hail, he felt a burning sensation in his left leg and realized he had suffered a blast to his shin. Authorities have no leads or motive in the matter. Call South Detectives at 215-685-1635, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

1VSS`ZSaa 1VSQYS`a Police are looking for the male who burglarized a Girard Estate location Tuesday. The morning shift manager at Checkers, 2008 W. Oregon Ave., met with officers shortly after arriving at the site at 8:15 a.m., Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Having noticed one of the walk-thru windows completely opened, she inspected the safe and found that it, too, was open. She also discovered change holders in disarray all over the floor, along with various packaged coins, with between $500 and $600 missing.

According to Tolliver, the offender is a black male, 20 to 25 years old who has a light complexion and who wore a white or light gray hoodie, blue plaid pajama-like pants and black shoes with white laces.

o say that there are many restaurants thriving and opening in South Philly is an understatement. We seem to be a haven for them, especially along East Passyunk Avenue and its fringe. Eateries that thrive in Fishtown, Center City and West Philly have realized that they want in on the action, too. With closing and opening news flying on a weekly basis, we decided a roundup was in order.

Coeur, 824 S. Eighth St., may be one of the biggest and most-anticipated newbies. The husband and wife team of Brendan Hartranft and Leigh Maida, along with partner Brendan Kelly and chef Andy Tessier, is ready to bring its family of restaurants below South Street. The couple, owners of Memphis Taproom, Local 44 and Strangelove’s, recently said goodbye to the late (but great) Resurrection Ale House, and will open a spot called Clarkville around the corner from Local 44 this fall, as well. “This isn’t tip-toeing! We’re hitting

the boards hard and opening with a 125-seat monster,� Maida said. “There is something special in the air here at Coeur. We’re all very very excited to unleash it on the unsuspecting public. If everything goes according to plan, we’ll open on Sept. 15.� She and Hartranft have two children and live in Fairmount, with the husband having just overcome lymphoma and chemotherapy. “A lot of the inspiration for Coeur came from reading cookbooks during chemo,� Hartranft said. “When I got done with chemo, Leigh and I

went up to Montreal and drank a lot of burgundy and had a great time — we were really struck by the accessibility.� With some sentimentality, (the name of the restaurant translates to “Heart� in French) he says they want “to establish the idea that the most important ingredient in the room is time with one another.� “Let’s call Coeur semi-French, French by way of Montreal,� Maida added.

he decision to ship second baseman Chase Utley to the Los Angeles Dodgers has left many Phillies fans understandably stunned. When anyone with exceptional skill and class puts on the uniform of any Philly sports team, that player is going to resonate with ardent fans. Utley spent more than 12 seasons in the City of Brotherly Love, and, wow, did he become accustomed to affection! As evidenced by his taking out fullpage ads in the Philadelphia Daily News and Inquirer (we at the South Philly Review are waiting for him to contact us!), the slugger felt as enamored with us as we did with him. With Utley’s departure in mind, the publication has decided to institute a weekly Top10 list on numerous topics, with this initial one dealing with athletes who have meant so much to the city. , UHVWULFWHG WKLV URXQGXS WR ¿JXUHV ZKRVH feats stretch back no more than 20 years ago. I know doing so means I will not be honoring such behemoths as Mike Schmidt and Reggie White, but here’s hoping this leads to a discussion on our sporting leaders! 10) Brian Dawkins , KDYH WDNHQ ÀDN IRU never really showing much allegiance to the Eagles, but I always admired B-Dawk, who gave fans 13 wonderful seasons in midnight green. When he signed a one-day contract in ’12, more than three years removed from his last game as a Bird, to retire as an Eagle, we received another reminder of his regard for the city and his admirable nature. 9) Brian Westbrook: Since Westbrook and I attended college at the same time, he at Villanova University and I at Saint Joseph’s University, I regularly read about his feats and had no doubts he would be an all-purpose threat in the NFL. In eight years here, he never averaged fewer than four yards per carry. Throw in his ability to catch the pigskin, too, with the ’07 campaign yielding 90 grabs, and this town certainly had reason to regret the team’s May ’10 decision to release him. 8) John LeClair: I have ALWAYS loved the Flyers. When I learned on Feb. 9, 1995 the club had dealt Mark Recchi to Montreal, I scoffed at parting with the high-scoring winger, but, wow, LeClair, who arrived in the trade, brought much more tenacity and brawn, beFRPLQJ WKH ¿UVW $PHULFDQ ERUQ SOD\HU WR VFRUH 50 goals in three consecutive NHL seasons. I hated seeing him join the despised pained me to see him join the Pittsburgh Penguins, but I always wished him well and lament that he never won a Stanley Cup here.

7) Eric Desjardins: This dedicated defenseman arrived with LeClair, with yours truly thrilled that the franchise had found a highscoring blueliner to carry on the tradition of Mark Howe. “Ricoâ€? logged 11 years here, but, like LeClair, he never captured the Cup as he and the winger had done with Montreal. 6) Rod Brind’Amour: When I began following hockey in ’89, I learned there are certain players who seem suited to play for the Flyers. Brind’Amour was a St. Louis Blue at the time, but I always envisioned him joining the Orange and Black. That became so in ’91and the prospects for the franchise greatly improved over the next few years. Alas, I never revelled in a Cup celebration, but I felt great for Brind’Amour when he triumphed with the Carolina Hurricanes in 2006. 5) Claude Giroux: Giroux has played 496 NHL games and has tallied 450 points. I call that and his boundless potential proof that the club’s championship drought will end soon, and I will not be able to contain my joy when he hoists the prize over his head. 4) Allen Iverson: I always struggled to garner much respect for The Answer off the court, but on it, he was such a fearless and admirable component of the last sniff the Sixers have had with respectability. 3) Andre Iguodala: “The other AIâ€? had a decent career here, and one wonders what might have been had management surrounded him with better helpers, which the Golden State Warriors did this season as they won the NBA title and he claimed the Finals MVP. 2) Jimmy Rollins: Many will forever whine about his failure to run out grounders, and, yes, I recall those instances, too, but J-Roll was always an underrated offensive threat. Calling the Phillies the team to beat in the NL East before the 2007 season, he went out and won the MVP Award and guided the Fightin’s WR WKH ÂżUVW RI ÂżYH VWUDLJKW GLYLVLRQ WLWOHV 7LPH waits for no man (a rebuilding franchise will never do it either), so I understood the reasoning behind his December trade, but the fact that he could win another championship with the Dodgers serves as suitable compensation. 1) Chase Utley: Utley, whom I met in ’13 as he and his wife visited a South Philly school to discuss an animal-centric mural, always impressed me with his approach to the game. The second baseman enters play today with a .282 career batting average. I would argue, though, that as a person, he will forever bat .1000 with fans. +(*

with any other school that contacts them. They’ve worked with Julia Masterman School on Spring Garden Street, when the school approached them (specifically to send kids to the Odyssey of the Mind competition in East Lansing, Mich.), and for the past two falls have welcomed Greenfield teachers in to be “celebrity scoopers� to raise funds. Chow’s a longtime resident of East Passyunk Crossing on Tasker Street, and he and Lee went to Bodine High School in Northern Liberties. They were neighbors until Lee moved to the area around Naval Square. “We just try to be very active in the community and try to give back,� Chow said.

She’s been active in the Friends of Jackson School and Friends of Kirkbride Elementary groups, but with a couple of her own efforts, namely a Stack that Paper paper-drive and a Little Red Wagon collection method, she’s trying to help resource-starved community schools however she can. “It is a bummer,� she conceded, the state of some schools desperate for the simplest materials. “For a number of us who have VisitŠ southofsouth.org/news/ritasthe privilege to be talking on a smartphone, we probably came from homes school-supplies-drive. with a box full of supplies.

s August comes to an end, many families across the city are preparing for a new school year by shopping. For some, they may receive a letter from their teacher with a list of supplies that their parents are willing and able to provide to the T. But the reality, for many families, is that a new bookbag, notebook, box of crayons and markers or even pens and pencils add up for folks struggling to provide their kids with the supplies they need to start the year off strong. Luckily, South Philadelphians come out of the woodworks toward the end of the summer and lead the charge for the rounding up of resources for buildings, teachers and students they so need. One such enterprise is born out of the South Street West presence of Rita’s, 2124 South St. Through September 5, the site is collecting supplies for five schools: Edwin M. Stanton School, 1700 Christian St.; Greenfield Elementary; Independence Charter; The Philadelphia School; and Chester A. Arthur School, 2000 Catharine St. The business is enticing people to donate by offering 10 percent off their purchase, and the school with the most donations will get a $500 Staples gift card (all other schools get $100). “We just try to be a part of the community, and we felt like this was a good way to help the local schools and also offer our customers and clients a little something extra,� Michael Chow, who’s managed the shop with his business partner Ken Lee, since August of 2013, said. The drive started August 10, but turnout’s been dismal thus far. “This past week we’ve been getting more, but in the first week-and-a-half we got zero participation, and I don’t know if it’s because people have been away on vacation,� Chow admitted. He and Lee have been cooperating on a regular basis with the South of South Neighborhood Association, and really

in our neighborhood who need us to chip in and greatly benefit from the generosity and support of their neighbors. Even something as trivial as a pencil.� She says ACME Markets, 1400 E. Passyunk Ave., “has always been great – there’s always a collection bin there.� For Stack that Paper, she got reams of paper collected and distributed to 14 different neighborhood schools across Philly. The Red Wagon sees her asking for commitments of $1, $5 or $10 to “liberate a marker and send it to a good classroom forever.� It’s a good way to get sharpies, crayons and paper to buildings by eliminating the middle man. Last Friday, at a drizzly Le Bok Fin rooftop, 1901 S. Ninth St., she collected $99 in a poncho. Patrick praises P’unk Avenue, 1168 E. Passyunk Ave., and Alphex Information Solutions, LLC for their generosity – “They’ve been super-generous, which is awesome.� Kim Newman, Chester Arthur’s principal, doesn’t have to fight budget blights regularly partly because she has so many parents and community members helping her. Especially Chow and Lee at Rita’s. They bring her gift certificates to offer as a reward for good behavior on a regular basis. “With us, we’re really fortunate we have such a supportive community. We’re really lucky,� Newman said, and pressed that, in the face of however slim her school’s budget is, the focus is on the kids. “No matter what the budget is, the kids are going to come to the first day of school and have an amazing first day. No matter what. That’s what I think about when I’m planning out how I allocate funds – I really do think about what’s best for the kids,� she said. For most schools, they can pretty much always take some more paper. “Paper is probably our biggest expense, we use it for everything. It’s something for every teacher, for everyone in the building,� Newman reported. “We certainly do things with a wish list, but paper is really good; it’s something that everyone’s happy to have a surplus [of].� +(*

That wall needs to be addressed,� but Grossi says it’s not as dire as an eager-to-sell pastor and congregants claim. Grossi says his organization “identifies properties that are at-risk, and in an ideal universe we are proactively doing that. Given the nature of the real estate market in Philadelphia right now, we are often responding to a very rapid pace of development, particularly one where just about anything is up for grabs right now.� He says the church is the oldest independent black church in the state and in the city. L&I’s chief of staff, Beth Grossman, deferred comment due to current litigation, and said “The City is represented in the equity court case by Joanna Klein, deputy city solicitor.� She also provided a definition for what L&I considers imminently dangerous structural elements: “Those which are in such a state of damage, deterioration or removal that collapse is expected at any time.� This doesn’t appear to be the building’s current designation, more that it’s unsafe with elements that “are badly damaged, deteriorated or missing, with additional structural deterioration expected unless remedial action is taken. The conditions do not indicate that collapse is imminent.� SOME REPORTS HAVE boiled the property’s conflicting interests as a fight between L&I and the Philadelphia Historical Commission while Rev.

days 1/10th full. PHC’s executive director, Jon Farnham, set the record straight. “The system is designed such that the two agencies will not be in conflict. The department’s goal is to ensure safety. The Commission’s goal is to protect historic resources. In almost all cases, both goals can be accomplished simultaneously. In those very rare cases when a historic or potentially historic building poses an imminent threat to public safety that can only be abated through demolition, the commission steps aside and allows for the demolition. Public safety is prioritized over preservation.� Farnham also says that achieving historic status for a building does not require the proprietor to get it up to code immediately or that it even continue to be a church. “Designation does not result in an automatic requirement to rehabilitate or ers 11 a.m. Aug. 28; English as a Second Language Conversation Group 1 p.m. and Yoga for All Levels 6:30 p.m. Aug. 31. 932 S.

restore,� he said. Furthermore, “it cannot require that a church continue to be a church. Churches can be challenging to preserve and adaptively reuse. The Historical Commission understands such challenges and works with owners of former houses of worship to find creative ways to reuse them while retaining their characterdefining historic features.� Sharif Street, an attorney who represents Griffith and the church’s sale, says the congregation can’t shoulder the responsibilities of restoration. “The cost associated with repairing the building is exorbitant, well beyond the capacity of the church’s membership. The church has already invested $1 million in stabilizing repairs,� he noted. “Because of the location of the building, it has a lot of value on the open market, and the church is confident that if you set aside whatever historical considerations there are, the of Snapshot Photography through Sept. 6; Pokemon Card Club 2 p.m. Aug. 27; WURD’s Summer of Freedom Tour Finale 10 a.m. Aug. 28; Baby and Toddler Story Time 11 a.m. Aug. 31; Introduction to Proposal Writing 9:30 a.m., Preschool Storytime with Miss Leigh 11 a.m. and A Taste of African Heritage 6 p.m. Sept. 1; The Joy of Android 10:30 a.m. and Introductory Computer Skills 6:30 p.m. Sept. 2. 1901 Vine St. 215-686-5322.

property could be sold for a considerable amount of money, which would allow the church to buy another building.� There have been accusations that Griffith is set to benefit from the sale big-time. “I believe that to be untrue,� his lawyer said to that and stances that the congregants opposed to the sale are being bullied and ostracized. At multiple church meetings, “over 90 percent of the congregants have voted to move forward with the sale and the relocation of the church,� Street said, adding “those people have gone outside church procedures – I don’t begrudge them.� Rachel Hildebrandt, from Partners for Sacred Places, has been watching the church inch towards a sale with apprehension. “Because the property is located in a neighborhood that is seeing a great deal of development, adaptive reuse is a viable option if the congregation would consider selling to a preservation-sensitive buyer,� she said. “The problem is, it’s more profitable to sell to a developer who will demolish versus to one who will preserve.� One such instance of just that is Alon Barzilay’s Sanctuary Lofts at 2321-27 Fitzwater St. What began in 1889 as the Saint Anthony of Padua Catholic Parish is now 38 units, some of which have stainedglass windows. “When it comes to churches, those are special buildings – they play an important part in the community. I wish they could create a Booker T.

S C I P M Y L PIZZA

Your favorite pizza eating event is back again for it’s 7th installment, but with a bit of a twist this time.

The South Philly Review will be presenting the Pizza Olympics event a little differently this year. Instead of each participating pizza parlor or restaurant traveling off premise to give out samples of their signature pies, we will be bringing the people directly to them!!! No more worrying about having enough staff to work the event table and going through hundreds of pizza boxes and other products. For the ďŹ rst time ever we will be selling Pizza CertiďŹ cates, which will entitle the purchaser to sample one slice of pizza from each of the participating shops, then they will vote for their favorites in the following categories: Best Crust, Most Creative, Veggie, White and Overall Favorite. So now, the people will come to your location, during your regular business hours, from 9/28 through 10/26 only.

Think It Up is a new movement created to inspire students to pursue their passions through student-powered, teacher-led learning projects in classrooms across the country with support from Staples for Students.

To kick-start the event, The South Philly Review will run a special Pizza Olympics pull-out section in the September 24th Issue, highlighting the participating parlors and restaurants and explaining the new format for this year’s event. Winners will be announced in the 11/5 Issue. Also, a portion of all Pizza CertiďŹ cate sales will beneďŹ t area schools!

Students and teachers: How can you spark great learning experiences in your classrooms today? Think It Up - because the work that students and teachers accomplish today will change our world tomorrow.

To participate in the 7th Annual Pizza Olympics, just purchase an ad in the special 9/24 issue and then sit back and let the new customers come directly to you!

ike any ardent artist, Shelley Spector loves the lessons that she can acquire when crafting a body of work, contending that compiling her ideas certainly breeds individual growth and looks to foster communal camaraderie. What, though, of what she and her peers entrust with expressing their messages? What identity do they have, and must one consider their nature as nothing more than an element of a grander design literally and figuratively? The 54-year-old has used these and many more inquiries to guide her sensibilities for years, with “Keep the Home Fires Burning,� her first solo museum exhibition, lauding the possibility and potency within reclaimed materials. “There’s something intangible within the components that really inspires me,� the resident of the 800 block of Catharine Street said within the Philadelphia Museum of Art’s Perelman Building, which is displaying her endeavor through Sept. 28. “By having this show, I’m responding to items that I see and the questions that I have about them.� The Bella Vista dweller devised the constituents through ventures to farmers’ markets, garage sales and The Salvation Army. Eager to explore the inherent qualities of the goods, she also pondered what the objects might have meant to their former owners, with that enthusiasm for their history allowing observers to note that artists also work as anthropologists, archeologists and sociologists. “We’re many things, sure, and I like the roles of chronicler and interpreter,� Spec-

tor said as she reflected on “Village,� which features tomato pin cushions made of refashioned fabric. “There’s symbolism to the constituents of each piece, and they mesh to help me to create narratives. That poetic license is so appealing.� Along with the novelty of this being her premiere solo museum-based brainchild, the ebullient individual can also cavort over two more characteristics of the project, which the renowned museum has presented since March 7. She noted this marked the first time that she produced artwork based on another creation, with a Pennsylvania German “show towel� by former decorative arts research associate Frances Lichten, whose letter-situated instruction to partner Katherine Milhous to “keep the home fires burning� inspiring her contribution’s title, and that participation in the conception allowed her to involve her mother, Anita Spector, in the exhibition’s evolution. Much like their interaction as the younger figure set to her tasks, the finished units welcome appreciation for the chance to contribute to a reimagining of purpose and an acknowledgment of cohesion. “The safety of the known appeals to

people, but it’s so easy to contemplate what else can come from something,� Spector said, noting how the space’s inclusion of a rug on which people can rest to discuss the components or lie down to inspect them encourages that let’s-gobeyond-the-standard-use sense. “We’re all parts of the overall experience of life, and it’s impossible to think about that without giving respect to how mutable something can be. Don’t fear that; embrace it.� IN ADVISING PEOPLE of the power that one can achieve from altering perceptions, the artist can point to her background as her backbone. Owing to the influence of her matriarch, who ran a school within their Northeast Philly home, Spector speculated that dancing would prove her vocation. Her youth included brushes with visual arts, but she had no pull toward tackling both. At a crossroads as adolescence waned, she considered art more seriously, even when not knowing what being a practitioner meant. “People told me I was good at it, so I just sort of found my way with help from my contemporaries,� she said, with the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and

the University of the Arts, the latter being a present employer, as her educational stops. “Then it became a process of learning in school and in the real world.� Intent on maintaining a busy profile, Spector specialized in having each labor present a new skill to master, with wood as her primary source for capturing captivating observations. Her website states “she likens disassembling and reassembling objects to studying communities, social systems — any group of coexisting and interacting people,� a stance that, along with her ample earnestness for establishing rapport with her colleagues, has resulted in tremendous exposure through solo exhibitions, including the Wind Challenge series at Fleisher Art Memorial, 719 Catharine St.; group shows; residencies; grants; writings; and collections, with the City of Brotherly Love particularly proud to present her output. “I’m a huge fan of Philadelphia,� the lifelong inhabitant said. “When I look at my work, it’s in response to what I’m locating here, and that’s a pretty fortunate opportunity for me because not only the residents but also the objects have so many compelling and enriching stories to tell.�

No matter the composition, be it the wood-and-paint-based homage to Lichten and Milhous dubbed “Frances Loves Katherine� or the wood-and-refashionedfabric offering titled “Striped Lion of Judah,� “Keep the Home Fires Burning� finds Spector not only creating a space to admire the experience of the human family but also leading visitors to realize their input on that clan’s growth will continue to enrich not only art at large but the imaginative gifts within every heart. “We all can be fairly adept at relating the seemingly unrelated parts of life,� she said. “As a student, I was asked to solve problems, and that’s something that everyone can emulate. We don’t have to lock ourselves into searching for that golden solution. Look around the world. Perspective is key. Recognition, too. What can come from being observant? That’s always something good to answer.� +(* Visit philamuseum.org or shelleyspector. com. Contact Managing Editor Joseph Myers at jmyers@southphillyreview.com or ext. 124.

s part of our weekend ritual, I knocked on Uncle Nunzio’s front door, loaded with our favorite treats from Claudio’s on Ninth Street -a couple of pounds of grated Locatelli cheese and our favorite specialty items — sun-dried tomatoes, marinated mushrooms and fresh mozzarella balls in olive oil and sprinkled with red pepper. Uncle supplied the loaf of crusty Italian bread. The quality of your conversation is directly related to the quality of the food you eat during that conversation. We quickly reached agreement on Jeb Bush, a ninny who actually believed it was Barack Obama rather than his brother who screwed up the Iraq War. I bit into a mozzarella ball and let out a scream. There is no greater pleasure than that first bite of fresh mozzarella and letting the creaminess descend over your taste buds. But today I was horrified to discover that my chemo treatments had turned the taste of those wonderful Claudio’s mozzarella balls into something that resembled an old copper penny. Uncle tried his best to console me. After all, I had eaten the sundried tomatoes and marinated mushrooms with great gusto (Uncle pointed out that I had consumed half both containers in the first five minutes of the conversation). We both decided that things would have been different if an Italian had invented chemo (Uncle offered the opinion that it wouldn’t be so bad, for instance, if chemo had destroyed the taste of coleslaw). Our conversation moved on to the upcoming visit of Pope Francis. I wondered what Uncle thought about all the complaints about the inconvenience the Pope’s visit was going to cause. Uncle replied that even Jesus would have to think twice about any plans for a second coming if it meant shutting down the Ben Franklin Bridge. “Especially if the Eagles were playing at home in a one o’clock game,� I added. Uncle grew pensive. What, he wondered, was Benedict doing while all this hoopla was going on about Pope Francis’ visit to America? Note to my dear readers: Reminder — Benedict was the Pope just two-and-a-half years ago. “I just sent him a card,� Uncle said. “You sent Benedict a card? What did it say?� I asked, “wish you were here?� If he were willing to admit it, Uncle fa-

vored Benedict. He thinks Francis is too much peace and love and not enough fire and brimstone. Uncle called Francis the “Good News Pope.� Uncle secretly believed that if the musical “Hair� included a pope as a character, it would’ve been Francis. He particularly did not like Francis’ statement that even atheists could get into heaven. “How the hell would an atheist know it was heaven when he got there?,� was how Uncle put it, as he pointedly stared at me. I pointed out, in defense of Pope Francis, he seemed to be bringing people back into the fold. In Uncle’s mind, the “fold� for new believers was probably Northern Liberties on a Saturday night I too wondered how quickly that, not only the news media, but the faithful had moved on from Benedict. Who remembered Benedict? One minute he was Pope dispensing religious truths and the next minute he was handing in his red slippers for wingtips. Did Benedict get a clothing allowance? If so, was it enough to shop at Armani, or did he have to settle for the two-for-one-sales at Joseph A. Bank? Being an ex-Pope was, if you’ll excuse the expression, virgin territory. Apparently, you don’t get to make some bucks by writing your memoirs and making the morning television circuit (I’m trying to stifle the image of Benedict being interviewed by Kelly Ripa and Michael Strahan). Francis is eating up the travel allowance so Benedict will never be able to leave the Vatican. So what does Benedict do with his time and how come Philadelphia Magazine has not done an article about him yet? Here’s how Philly Mag would do its typical treatment of Benedict: What’s on your iPod playlist? “Well, I favor Gregorian chants with the soundtrack from “The Singing Nun� when I need my spirits lifted.� From Benedict’s answer, Philly Mag’s bold headline — What does Benedict have against Andrea Bocelli? What is your relationship with Pope Francis, and what do you think of his espousal of liberal views? Benedict explains that other than sharing a bathroom (Francis sometimes leaves the door locked on the other side and Benedict can’t get in to use it), the two men don’t see each other that much. As far as Francis’ liberal views, Benedict merely responds by gesturing with his hands as if to say, “It is what it is.� Note: Out of a 2,000 word article titled “Tale of two popes,� the writer spends 1,500 words describing the decor of Benedict’s apartment. During Pope Francis’ visit, Uncle asks, give Benedict a thought. SPR Comment at southphillyreview.com/opinion/ cardella.

akeout dishes definitely hold sway in the summer, as many locals elect not to give themselves another heat source through using their ovens. Healthy selections can often become casualties of that thinking, but through her Veggie Salad recipe, Christina Maiellano reminds readers that while searching for comfortable conditions, they can also reach for cool delights to sate their hunger. The resident of the 2500 block of South 10th Street offers a concoction that arrives just in time for those who might be plotting their Labor Day celebrations or those who simply salute simplicity. The Lower Moyamensing inhabitant capped her submission by saying “Trust me; this recipe will not stay on the table.� Let’s prove her right! +(*

s soon as I walked into Heritage, the music on the sound system put me in a fine mood. Jazz and the blues are among my favorite genres, but one can not omit The Beatles, Tony Bennett and Frank Sinatra. Heritage, located in Northern Liberties, is a huge space with looming ceilings, polished wood tables and a long welcoming bar. We arrived for an early dinner and decided to eat at the bar. The stools are tall comfortable chairs with backs. The drinks menu is larger than the bill of fare, which sometimes sets off the red light that the restaurant is more liquor-focused than food-focused. I was introduced to Bulleit Rye a few years ago. The Manhattan ($11) the bartender mixed was just right, as was the martini ($11). The menu is mid-sized, which is fine with me. There are more small plates than entrees. I had never heard of Kunik. “It is like brie,â€? the bartender said. Since there was no description about this dish was to be, I waited for a surprise. Kunik ($13) consisted of a small slice of toasted brioche, topped with a tiny wedge of the aforementioned cheese with some sautĂŠed bok choy. This toddler-size starter was good but overpriced. Chicken croquettes ($9) brought back funny memories the first time I tried to make turkey croquettes after a Thanksgiving feast and I forgot the bĂŠchamel. Heritage’s version ($9) consisted of a trio of croquettes, each one smaller than a pingpong ball, coated in crumbs and fried. They were tasty, but a little dry. The Jackson Pollack squiggles of hot creamy sauce on the plate added a bit of flavor. The fried eggplant ($9) was disappointing. A few small round of Japanese eggplant were sautĂŠed rather than fried, and were a bit greasy. Two tiny cloves of garlic, which turned a bit sweet in the sautĂŠing process, and two or three tiny bites of potato were included in this dish. At this point, I noticed a man carrying a bass into Heritage. We were told the restaurant offers live jazz later in the evening and also during Sunday brunch. This is a nice touch, especially when a new restaurant is trying to attract customers in the city’s ever-growing restaurant scene. I was going to build my dinner around a few more small plates, but pork and clams

=^S`ObW\U >O`b\S` <ObVO\ 0Og\Sa

P h o t o f r o m H e r i ta g e . L i f e

($23) was on the menu. This is one of my favorite Portuguese dishes. It is usually prepared with spicy chorizo and littleneck clams, brimming with fresh herbs and garlic. The menu states the chefs uses middleneck clams. I have never heard of them. Perhaps it was a typo. Since the starters were so small, I asked how many clams were to be included in the entrĂŠe. I was told one-half pound. I received a shallow dish with four littleneck clams and several slices of pork loin that were so dry and overcooked that I had trouble slicing. I took one taste and the salt monster kicked in. It was inedible. In its place, I ordered the Cape Cod mussels ($12) that are the plump version of this mollusk. They were nicely cooked but each one was sandy and gritty. It is important to sprinkle them with some flour before rinsing and cooking so the mussels will give up the grit and sand. Pan-fried trout ($21) fared better. The flesh was juicy and the skin crispy. Some sautĂŠed lettuce and a few potatoes were included. A glass of verdejo ($9), a crisp dry white wine from Spain, drank well with the fish courses. Heritage could become a better restaurant if more care goes toward the planning and preparation of each dish. I also think it is a bit too expensive. Service, however, was excellent. Fresh share plates and flatware appeared with each course. One-and-a-half tips of the toque to Heritage. +(*

obert Fulghum rose to fame in 1988 with the publication of “All I Really Need To Know I Learned in Kindergarten.� If one looks at that from a professional point of view, Nathan Baynes could win acclaim as an overachiever since his acute devotion to food became apparent at age 4. Thirty-four years later, the gregarious gastronome has come to count himself as a friend to fanatics of fine eats, with operating partner status at Paesano’s Philly Style, 1017 S. Ninth St., his present calling. “We’re in a very competitive field period and especially in this area,� the impending Pennsport dweller said of what he and owner Peter McAndrews, who also helms Monsu, 901 Christian St., face as Bella Vista proprietors. “We’re fortunate, then, that there’s been such great receptivity to our offerings.� The location opened in 2010, one year after operations began at the Northern Liberties-based space bearing the same name. Baynes, whose business relationship with his peer includes a stint at the Fairmountsituated Rembrandt’s, where he eventually served as general manager, noted that though education seemed his vocational destiny nearly two decades ago, life as a culinary purveyor has definitely made the would-be teacher a better student. “Good nutrition matters to me, so the more I’m in this field, the more I want to be a part of something that’s capable of presenting something for everyone,� the Old City resident, who as a youth inspired his grandmother to remark on his nourishment knowledge when he lauded a meal, said. “I’d say that through our adventuresome menu, we have that here.� He credits his colleague for that diver-

F o o d P h o t o b y Ti n a G a r c e a u

sity, noting McAndrews aims to sate “an international palate with Philadelphia style� creations. Their Diavlo, which Baynes described as “the ultimate comfort sandwich,� has merited many enthusiastic responses, with the operating partner touting the merger of the ingredients for their “Oooh mommy!� effect. “The flavors are amazing, and I hope I don’t sound too, too biased saying that,� Baynes remarked with a chuckle. “Just as you should be proud of your nutritional selections, you should be concerned for what you’re presenting people so that they can make those choices. That’s a guiding principle here.�

hen Karamo Dioubate decided to attend Prep Charter High School, 1928 Point Breeze Ave., he did so partially as a response to a critic who contended he could not compete at a credible level for the Huskies. The 17-year-old defensive end possesses too much humility to disparage the downer, choosing to let his commitment to his craft do the talking. From a pool of highly renowned schools, the coveted recruit committed to Penn State University Aug. 16 and will look to help the Nittany Lions to scratch their way to the top of the Big Ten Conference standings. “Everybody knows about the winning tradition there,� the senior-to-be said Monday from his West Passyunk-based secondary school. “I’m eager to be a part of that and be a solid contributor.� The 6-foot-4 presence became the 19th Class of 2016 performer to elect to join coach James Franklin in Happy Valley. He could not recall the date on which he received interest from Penn State but knows that it came soon after Ohio State University — the defending national champion — made its pitch. “We’re pretty familiar with how they feel about each other,� Dioubate said, with a laugh. “I really didn’t feel any pressure to choose by a certain point, but I’m glad to have picked somewhere so that I can push the focus off me, which is something I’ve always wanted to do, and prepare for this season with Prep Charter.� Along with Ohio State, the First-Team All-Public honoree bypassed such powerhouses as Alabama and Auburn and quality programs that include Florida, Michigan State and Wisconsin. Familiar with the Keystone State club through viewing occasional contests when Joe Paterno and Bill O’Brien patrolled the sidelines, he has not observed the squad much since

Franklin assumed the head coaching role last year, but no matter his impending leader’s mindset, Dioubate knows that focus must be his full-fledged ally. “I have no worries at all about adjusting because I’m not afraid of hard work,� he said. “There is still my senior year here to concern myself with and enjoy, so I’m not getting too far ahead of myself.� THE TEMPERATE TEENAGER has long held the desire to grow better in his endeavors while never feeling any need to rush matters or panic about possible outcomes. The native New Yorker matured in Southwest Philly, his current expanse, and first tried sports as a sixth-grader, with lacrosse as the initial pursuit. “I wasn’t doing much, so I tried it with my gym teacher,� Dioubate recalled. “It was interesting to try, and then football

came the year after that.� With virtually no knowledge of what has since become his obsession, he relied on the excitement and wisdom from relatives and friends to grow astute. Success came his way at the now-shuttered George Wharton Pepper Middle School, but when he began his high school career, with Prep Charter winning out over Imhotep Institute Charter High School, he entered the school with the same easygoing nature that has come to make him a beloved teammate. “I was young and still learning the game,� he said of commencing his high school days. “Whatever I could do to become a tiny bit more prepared and confident, I did it and started to feel stuff coming together.� Despite being graced with amazing athleticism, Dioubate refrained from ever

believing his budding talent would attract numerous followers, but when Temple University contacted him after his sophomore campaign, he needed to concede that other suitors would likely make a push for him. “I was shocked to receive an offer,� he said of outreach from the North Phillysituated institution. “I had to comprehend a bunch of stuff in a short period of time because, along with football, I had other obligations to tend to, including my schoolwork.� By then a stupendous student of the game, Dioubate entered last season eager to help the Huskies to harass their foes, with the yearning youngster guiding the stingy defense and fellow Liberian Vian Dolo helming the offense at quarterback. Coach David Hand’s charges swept their four Class AA duels and brought their facility its inaugural pigskin crown with a 14-12 triumph over Del-Val Charter. The next week found them waging a neighborhood battle with Ss. Neumann-Goretti High School, 1736 S. 10th St., with the Saints earning the AA City championship with a 12-6 decision, the Huskies’ lone loss on the way to a 10-1-1 mark. “That one stung a bit, but it was an amazing year,� Dioubate, a menace to the offensive line in both title tilts, said of the overall progress. “We’re coming into this year looking for more success.� The leader loves using “we� instead of “I� in explaining what the Huskies will need to make this slate, which begins with a Sept. 4 duel at Strath Haven, even more memorable. Lauding his teammates and their overseers, he believes that their school can be South Philly’s version of Happy Valley if everything comes together. “We definitely want to be smiling at the end of the season,� Dioubate said. “People are going to focus on me, and I get that because of whatever attention I’m receiving, but this is a team. I’m just one of many guys who are looking to disappoint teams. We’re all hungry and we’re all ready.� SPR Contact Managing Editor Joseph Myers at jmyers@southphillyreview.com or ext. 124.

ndianapolis 500 victor Juan Pablo Montoya visited the NovaCare Complex, One NovaCare Way, Friday to catch the Eagles’ practice session.
