Of course one can get around in Chestnut Hill, you just have to be able to read a Septa map!

You're missing the point. No one's talking about putting an Apple Store in Chestnut Hill. The point is that you've missed the Pittsburgh analogy.

Could you imagine the size cow the Chestnut Hill Neighbors would have if Apple told them they wanted to put this


on a commercial street in their historic district? It would be an NIMBY of epic proportions!

I'm wondering if the lack of a good site downtown (Apple seems to like to build from the ground up for its flagships) may be part of the problem for Philly.
