#Manayunk #Philadelphia #GroundhogDay forecast for 2026:

Two local forecasters (plush groundhogs, center front and right) and the European model (plush badger) all agree this #Imbolc : sharp-edged shadows and more sharp cold winter yet to come!

Also pictured: Brigit Brigiddsdottir (standing with red blanket), guardian of the Manayunk bridge.

Four animals gather in the winter cold, casting a long shadow behind them onto a snowfield: a plush badger; a concrete T-Rex in a winter hat and a red knit blanket; a small plush groundhog with a yellow bicycle helmet; and a larger plush groundhog carrying a pillow and wearing a leather motorcycle jacket.

Bridgid is Fridgid.

The little park on the #Philly end of the #Manayunk bridge attracts donations from friends and neighbors: wooden picnic tables, plastic chairs, sturdy kids' toys. Things that can withstand getting left outside.

But a #BabyGrand #piano got left there about 2 weeks ago. And even with a tarp to cover it, it's going to get ravaged by weather soon. Local report is that it got dropped off by someone who had to move on short notice and couldn't find a home for it. In the days of electronic keyboards, real pianos are a glut on the market.

But it breaks my heart to see it outside as the winter comes.

Spread the word: if you want a baby grand and have a way to haul it, it's waiting for a home. (Or a church, or a school....)

A baby grand piano sits outside covered by a green tarp. There's a picnic table visible beside it.

Several large items are arranged on an outdoor plaza, in front of a fence, on a background of fall foliage. There are several picnic tables, and a piano covered by a tarp.

The front plate over a piano keyboard reads:

RoxyYunk PorchFest is great this year, but a lot is getting rained out. The rain got pretty aggressive, especially for folks playing with amps.

I had noticed that a church had taken over a flood-prone building in the #Manayunk neighborhood in Philadelphia and was doing extensive renovations. I hadn't noticed that they put all of their active spaces on the upper floor of the building, leaving the ground floor to flood.

A good article on how to keep historic water-front buildings in use as the water gets higher (and how thoughtless development nearby can be making things worse) :

#Manayunk is a trendy neighborhood located in Northwest #I Philadelphia next to the scenic #SchuylkillRiver. It has many bars, cafés, and unique restaurants in addition to hosting the annual #ManayunkArtsFestival. I believe the name was derived from Lenin-Lenape Tribe of Native Americans (also called The Delaware Indians), who were the original inhabitants of the Philadelphia area which was called Shackamaxon when #WilliamPenn arrived in the 1600’s. #DogLovers

9/10/22 - The Grape Room in Manayunk, Philly. While loading out around 1:30am I saw a guy get decked in the street.

This is one of my favorite locations in Philly, especially when it's cold enough that algae can't grow in the water. #Philadelphia #Manayunk

A bridge spanning a narrow canal in Philadelphia. It's a sunny day and the bridge is reflected in the calm water of the Manayunk canal.

I've never seen lines to #vote this early in the morning. 7:55 am and there's a line at the polling place on Green Lane in #Manayunk #Philadelphia #Philadelphia.

RoxYunk PorchFest is underway and honestly a blast.

The image captures a vibrant street scene under a clear blue sky. Dominating the foreground is a black car, parked neatly by the side of the road. Its sleek form contrasts with the red car on its right, which sports a white roof and a silver spoiler, adding a touch of sportiness to the scene.

In the background, three more cars are visible. Two of them are as black as night, while one stands out in a striking shade of orange. They are parked in front of a brick building, which boasts a porch adorned with columns, lending an air of elegance to the otherwise ordinary structure.

The street itself is lined with trees, their lush green leaves forming a natural canopy overhead. Their presence adds a touch of nature to this urban setting. The precise location of these elements creates a harmonious balance in the image, making it not just a simple snapshot of cars on a street, but a scene that tells a story of everyday life and city living.

People in my neighborhood have been struggling to get a burnt-out car 311'd for months, so someone decided to just give up and incorporate it into the scenery.

The charred remains of a burnt out car. A sign is affixed to it, which reads:

Urban Relic: Audi on Leverington

Artist Unknown

Metal, Plastic, Fabric, and Ash

Leverington & Main Street, Philadelphia

September 2024

Once a symbol of mobility and status, this Audi now rests in etemal park, its final destination determined by an expired sticker, a ripped bumper, and the conspicuous absence of a license plate. On September 10th, the vehicle embraced a new artistic medium - flame - offering a fast-forwarded glimpse of urban decay. As days pass, the installation evolves: doors ajar, hood up, perhaps a new trinket added by a passerby. A poignant reminder that life around it moves on, while this relic rusts, stalls, and absorbs the passing glances of the curious.

Please do not contribute additional fire.

The cars are too big – and too many. Otherwise I'd say Europe.

Photo: Standing in the middle of a narrow cobblestone street lined on both sides by cars facing the photographer. At the far end of the street is a row of connected tiny houses, each with a single window on the second floor and a single dormer window protruding from the roof above the second floor.

Sometimes a single sign packs more depthful humor and ironic force than volumes of culture production.
