This is the text that goes along with the mural
“Philadelphia is a city where past and present co-exist. Our mural design evokes an awareness of our city’s history through archival photographs, poetry and personal stories from everyday people that live in the city. Our goal was to portray nostalgia and memory along with the evolving nature of the people and neighborhoods. The design shows visions of history, industry, identity, diversity, community, social activism, struggle, survival and progress that are relevant to the Philadelphia experience. Overall, we reflected the triumphs and hardships that make Philadelphians unique and resilient.”

I have been a few places, seen a lot of things. I have had my hands in many fields. I may have answers for you if you have questions...even if you don't.
