Shit, I remember when Kensington and Somerset wasn't an open air drug market (just a regular drug market, back in '01 lol). Still, this is said. I know a few kids who hustle on Somerset, plus a few grown men who cop there. Either way, the guy who filmed this has balls; don't make a habit out of filming drug transactions! This area is generally "peaceful", meaning if you're a customer nobody will fuck with you. But you have serious balls slinging a camera around there, my friend.

Reminds me of my wife's old neighborhood in East New York, Brooklyn. Hey, I can dig it! Better like this than bland-ass whitebread hipsters and yuppies moving in, real estate shooting up, and pushing everybody out of a living.

@backtoharmony hurry, I think it leaves COMCAST XFINITY FREE MOVIES ON DEMNAD on the 25 of sept.sometimes you have to search all movies in different catagories. but it's right out of kennsington, at least it reminds me of what must go on here behind the first few blocks, as I have never gone further than one block over

@BizzareCorpse and swimming pools that have been full of water spreading mosquitos and row boats and even a cabin cruiser can be seen in those lots, along with trailers and god knows what else, but at least you saw them or someone cleaning it up. That deserves a smile & a thumbs up ! there used to be dozens of abandoned trolleys and tires abandoned down under the bridge area including burn marks where homeless men had started fires, but they cleaned that out. philly takes time. GET USED TO IT !
