I've gone back several times since then, on business and pleasure...Always good to return to Broad Street...Even if the old hospital is a parking lot now...

Thanks for the kind words,I love Philadelphia myself.

It is a real shame they tore down the Naval Hospital for a frigin Eagles Practice center and parking lot. It was one of the finest art deco buildings I have ever seen.
