Chestnut St & 4th St. South: Second Bank of the United States. Great architecture was in abundance. I didn’t expect to see Greek columns supporting an American bank. The weathered cobblestone road got a quiet laugh as I watched a woman attempt to walk the now pedestrian stones in her “pumps”. She quickly fled to the consistency of the concrete sidewalk.

Walnut St & 6th St. South: Independence Hall. Philadelphia feels like the center of the United States. I started my walk from a subway station beneath a downtown shopping center. Blindly I followed a small crowd until i found myself in a green park centered among a bare forest of grand old trees. I instantly had the feeling these trees had been witness to so much of the countries history.

Any St. and a Mailbox.

I’ve never seen people hanging out at a mailbox let alone use it to rest a mid-day coffee. Being in Philadelphia it was a must to find the countries best Philly cheese steak. My theory goes that if you search for great food you’ll find a great photo. “Excuse me, where is the best cheese steak in Philly?” “Jim’s … since 1939!”
