THE DAILY URBAN LANDSCAPE #8 PINE STREET

Decided to stay in Philly for one more day before moving on, but will definitely be returning.  I lived in Philly for for four years, 3 of them in apartments on Pine Street, just a few blocks from the homes in this painting.  Unfortunately they were not as elegant as these.

I would walk to classes in the morning in coat and tie (Jefferson's required dress code in the earl 60s) and see the students at the nearby Phila. College of Art in jeans, sweaters, etc., carrying their portfolios, and wondered why I envied them as I did.
