Don't meet and if they ever do we're all going to need a cleanup.

Is that Hegerman, a Street or a Road?

There's a Hegerman Street at Frankford in Mayfair too. It took me a while to realize you meant the one that feeds directly into Knights Road up at the city line.

Good luck with your clean-up.

Now you're confusing me scoats. Where is hegerman street and frankford in mayfair?

I know of hegerman street which runs a block east of torresdale in wiss and tacony. And I thought it was the same street when it meets knights road.

Anyway, good luck with your clean-up. Unfortuanately I won't be able to make it. Hope it goes well though.

That was funny, Heavy.

Yeah now I am confused also. Plus I thought it meant clean up here on Frankford Avenue. Yes, all good wishes. When we have one I'm in.

ACK! You're right!

The Hegerman in the Far NE had confused me in the past, obviously it still does. It doesn't appear to be a continuation of Hegerman in Tacony/Wiss, though on a city planning map it probably does look logical, like how all the Tolbut Streets sort make some sense when looked at on a map.

I was confusing Hellerman with Hegerman. D'oh!

Default Earth Day Clean Up Address

Hi! Just to clarify... The park clean-up is at the intersection of Frankford Ave. and Hegermen St. Knight St. does turn into Hegermen St. at Frankford Ave. The clean-up site is right behind the 7-11 on Frankford Ave. Hope to see you there!
