Weekend Guide

Happy Halloween! The future of Philadelphia doesn't have to be as spooky as today’s holiday: Our friends around the web helped us imagine future possibilities our city can flourish. This week, we realized just how much business the PHS Pop Up Garden brought to South Street West as the space evolved over the previous 4 years. Could you imagine a pedestrian street in Market East? Or even a family-friendly Philadelphia? And the way bike commuting continues to go up, can we expect less cars on the road? Now back to reality. More importantly: what will we do this weekend?  Lucky for us, this weekend is crawling with fun! Philly Weekend Events October 31-November 2:

Happy Friday! Don't get us wrong: we love men 'round here, but are still totally amped from yesterday's Pennsylvania's Conference For Women. From Robin Roberts reminding us we've all got something, to Candy Chang's transformation of neighborhoods with chalk & side of a building, to Diane Keaton's questioning of Billy Pitt, that poet on top of City Hall (and holllerrr - our logo figure) - it was an inspiring day to be in Philadelphia and a woman.

Happy Friday! This week, we learned from Next City that New York has a StreetsPAC for more pedestrian & biking friendly cities. Perhaps Philly can follow suite? Thanks to Be Well Philly for confirming our Runner's High and Hidden City Philadelphia for taking us to an underground 4-million gallon sewage & storage tank. And obviously, Generocity's piece about chickens from Nic Esposito made us rethink our compost bins (but not really...) Find out what to do over the weekend, after the jump!

Hope this crisp weather has you falling for the new season! Did you get out to see the new Schuylkill Boardwalk? We're psyched to run on over and give it a go but any way to get outdoors for a little adventure seems ideal for this weekend! This weekend, head over to the race in Fishtown or to the Schuylkill for a wild adventure. Whether with friends, family, or quality alone time, get out and take advantage of all that Philly has to offer! Weekend Events for October 3-5, 2014:

Happy Fall! Or happy "Tease of summer as we're FALLing into Autumn". Your pick. This weekend is set to be gorgeous, and Philly's set with several events to get you outdoors. Eat your way through Manayunk, spend lots of time at the Schuylkill Center with their jam-packed Saturday or Bike & drink beer (responsibly) with the Bike Coalition!
