Christian ought to have cabs from time to time itself, but I guess I'd hoof it down to Delaware Ave. if nothing shows on Christian.

I rarely see taxis down that way. The only time I have is when they cruise by the Movie theater or drop someone off. Personally I'd just huff it up to south street, in particular to headhouse square.

You might have better luck walking down to Washington or up to 2nd/South.

I used to work at the CVS at 2nd and Lombard (right across from Headhouse Square), and there were always cabbies around.

Default Liberty Cab

We actually have a cab company in Southeast Queen Village! It's Liberty Cab Company, 842 S. 2nd St., (215) 389-8000. Their office is tucked away. Between Queen & Christian Sts., is a narrow, 18th century street called Beck St. Their office door is on the south side of the 200 block of Beck, close to the corner of 2nd & Beck. I have run in there, and the dispatcher has gotten me a cab in 5 minutes. The second best place is the corner of 2nd & South Sts. I've never waited more than 5 minutes there, either.
