No clue, but if you upload it to a Flickr account, be sure to add it to the Philadelphia Murals group.

Just as a wild guess, I'd say somewhere in lower Germantown or Nicetown?

Based on the style of the rowhouses, I would say that picture was taken close to 54th and Locust. Possibly the lower part of Strawberry Mansion.

I take the R5 to get to work (I live in North Wales) and I can see the exact same type of rowhousing all the way down to center city.

So I guess it could be anywhere within the philadelphia city borders, atleast just based on the housing features.

No...Nicetown/N. Philly is my vote too. Looks like what I have seen after Wayne Junction (R8 &R5 use the same tracks after WJ) inbound to Temple and CC.
