City gets residents’ input about how to weather changing climate - Grid Magazine

The work is being funded by $600,000 the Office of Sustainability (OOS) received in March from the William Penn Foundation. The City’s resiliency plan outlines climate change’s impacts on Philadelphia and how the City will meet the challenges they pose. The City aims to reevaluate regional climate projections every five to 10 years, ident…Read Article

New book explores the 1950s transformation of Southwest Philadelphia and the social and environmental grassroots efforts that guided and opposed it - Grid Magazine

Will Caverly was one of the thousands of people who flocked to the John Heinz National Wildlife Refuge at Tinicum during the COVID-19 pandemic. And like most of those people, he didn’t know much about Eastwick, the neighborhood next door. He wasn’t aware how, during the mid-20th century, it was the site of the largest urban redevelopment project in U.S. history as city planners imposed their vision on thousands of residents, displacing them from…Coronavirus · PhiladelphiaRead Article

After a cancer diagnosis, a family meatball recipe brings mother and son closer together - Grid Magazine

In 1965, Alphonse Pignataro, recently graduated from Trenton State College (now The College of New Jersey), boarded a plane bound for Barbados. For the Elizabeth, New Jersey, native, this marked a moment of multiple firsts: his first jet flight, his first time leaving the United States and the first year of a two-year Peace Corps commitment. Just as he couldn’t know what he would find in Barbados, he couldn’t anticipate what he would miss from h…Trenton, New Jersey · TrentonRead Article

Editor's Notes: Parks Need a Hero - Grid Magazine

Every year the Trust for Public Land releases its ParkScore ratings, and every year Philadelphians have something to be disappointed about: how little the City spends on its parks. ParkScore ranks the 100 most populous cities in the country using a list of measures gauging the size of the park system (acreage), what the parks have to offer (amenities), how easy it is for people to get to their parks (access), how equitably park resources are dis…Philadelphia, Pennsylvania · PhiladelphiaRead Article

Parks advocate reflects on the last 40 years - Grid Magazine

In the spring of 2024 the board of trustees of Parks & Rec Heroes, previously known as the Philadelphia Parks Alliance, voted to wind down the organization’s operations. Originally called Friends of Philadelphia Parks, the group was founded in 1983. It lobbied for increased funding as well as a more inclusive and transparent Fairmount Park Commission, which was then the park system’s governing body. The Alliance worked to preserve open space in …Philadelphia, Pennsylvania · PhiladelphiaRead Article

Here’s what was — and wasn’t — mentioned in the Parks & Recreation budget hearing - Grid Magazine

On April 16, halfway through the City of Philadelphia’s annual budget hearings, Philadelphia Parks & Recreation answered City Councilmembers’ questions centering safety and the future of the department’s more than 500 facilities. The department is requesting nearly $7.4 million less than last year largely because, as commissioner Susan Slawson testified, the FY2025 budget included one-time payments — for bonuses, new equipment and site maintenan…Philadelphia, Pennsylvania · PhiladelphiaRead Article

Germantown-based organization gives formerly-incarcerated women the tools they need to survive and thrive - Grid Magazine

First raped at age 12 and then throughout her teens, Reverend Dr. Michelle Simmons began using drugs. In her early 20s, thirsting for a new life, the Germantown native moved to Los Angeles. “I took my old behaviors with me,” Rev. Simmons says. Convicted of prostitution and a felony, she spent six years incarcerated in Los Angeles County. Released from prison in 1999 at age 27, she returned to her mother’s home near Philadelphia. That refuge gave…Philadelphia, Pennsylvania · PhiladelphiaRead Article

Multi-use trail on track to connect Wissahickon Valley Park to Fort Washington along an abandoned railroad right-of-way - Grid Magazine

When Robert Thomas, 78, was 11 years old, he envisioned a hiking trail in North Philadelphia that would follow the corridor of the Pennsylvania Railroad’s abandoned Fort Washington branch. He even gave a presentation about the idea to his sixth-grade class. “It was my first feasibility study for a trail: ‘Why we should connect the Wissahickon with Fort Washington,’” says Thomas, partner and founder at Campbell Thomas & Co. architecture firm and …Philadelphia, Pennsylvania · PhiladelphiaRead Article

Pilot program uses AI to issue tickets for illegally-parked cars that interfere with wheelchair ramp deployment in bus zones - Grid Magazine

We all have a routine that prepares us to conquer the day. We need our morning coffee, maybe, or to find the right playlist for our commute. If you take public transportation, getting the bus can be half the battle. For most, anxiety eases when you make it to the bus stop in time, but for some riders another potential hurdle looms. A SEPTA bus accommodates 49 ambulatory riders. When a stop is blocked by cars or delivery trucks, these passengers …Artificial Intelligence · PhiladelphiaRead Article
