Sorry, old-timer here. I use CC more generically than most. I don't as a general rule of thumb break down into all of the damned tiny nabes. I just use the bigger geographical breakdowns. So you're still considering. The drive must be getting to you, or the ladies are.

We should all just start calling it J-Ho.

G-Ho versus J-Ho (Gay-Ho).

Why is everybody trying to brand our city as the new New York?

Next thing you know,
Broad Street > Broadway
Avenue of the Arts > Theater District
"G-Ho" > SoSo
Fairmount > NoSpriGar
NE Philly > Queens!
30th St Station > Ben Station
Navy Yard > New Coney
Forgotten Bottom > FoBo
Temple U area > T to the hizzie
Schuylkill River > West river
Art Museum > PMArt
BF Parkway > Park Avenue
Fairmount Park > West-Central Park
Philadelphia Zoo > West-Central Park Zoo
40th & Walnut > InterBoMa
LOVE sculpture > Statue of Love
Camden > Homelessken
Belmont Ave > 44th Street Transverse
West Philly > West Side
Northbound BSL Local train > Uptown L train
Society Hill > Southeast Village
etc, etc, etc

UCD is trying to makret U City as "left of center" aka Left Bank.
Being a U City resident, I didn't pick up on that one either.

Thumbs down Washington Square West - Gayborhood - Midtown Village?!

From Today's Philadelphia Gay News:

Quote:
‘Gayborhood’ no more

Philadelphia’s gay enclave, formerly known as Washington Square West and referred to as the Gayborhood by many, was recently renamed Midtown Village.

Residents and visitors will soon see the new name on banners, ads and business invoices.

“This is a unique, charming, colorful area. We have to tell people about it,” said James McManaman, who owns Absolute Abstract, on South 13th Street.

The new Midtown Village encompasses Broad to 11th streets, and Market to Locust streets.

“We think this is the best thing that ever happened,” said Marianne Stone, owner of Nova Hair Salon at 13th and Sansom streets. “If you name it, people will come.”
What?!?!
