Philadelphia....a beautiful city .....proud to be from Philly
Back in the early 1960’s I lived and worked in center city. Ii was an upper Mezzanine bus boy and worked in the lower kitchen at Stouffer’s 15th and Chestnut. My apartment was over in Arch Street across from Rayburn Plaza. I was going to Philadelphia Wireless School for Electronics. I am in my 80’s now and very much retired.thanks so much for this tour and memory.
It seems like Philadelphia really comes alive during the winter season. I’ve always dreamed of going, maybe I will be there sometime soon 🤞🏼
I remember when that WaWa was a WoolWorth across from HardRock cafe & Macy’s was John Wanamaker’s
Thank you Brother for your time from NC!! My friend Daniel’s mom was from Philly,and he moved back there to settle her estate,he invited me several times to come and see how beautiful the place was,he unfortunately had an OD shortly after at age 49.Your videos have provided the only link to my dear lost friend.thank you sir.

Wow! This looks soooo good. Wish my country had snow. Love your videos my man
John wannamaker was a religious man that once hosted dl moody in his building for church service. He is best known for his advertising abilities. Very good man and smart man that memorized over 1000 names of Dl moodys church members
Amazing! This place is always in my heart. A perfect destination for me. I love the experience. The views are so enticing as always! :)
Once the world gets back to normal you should be a tour guide through Airbnb. I love walking guide tours whenever I travel on vacation and you have great energy!
Merry Christmas Toon. Stay safe.💋❤
Very cool tour, thanks! A 180° VR mode would be awesome for this!
That was fun to watch. Who knew Philly was so festive at Christmas time
I was legit just here the other day. I'm from the Jersey Shore but love Philly. I don't see myself living here forever, but my child goes to a performing arts school here & loves it here. So much more to offer than a small town, but boy that crime rate has me ready to RUN outta here😂
merry Christmas and new years my man
merry christmas happy holidays great vlog's thank's for sharing
@ 00:40:23
The Domed structure is
The Basilica of Saints Peter & Paul.
Basilica is Latin for Castle.
So it's the Castle
of Saint Peter & Paul
Roman Catholic Basilica.

I loveeee Christmas even though I don't and haven't celebrate it
That new building Mormon temple church - and the Mormon apartments are next to it,,,and Cameroon is in Africa...The Cathedral is building there apartment right next to their building as of this year.
Great video and I love your narration. Thank you.
However when you went past the bronze statue you forgot to mention that it was the African American, Civil Rights Activist Octavius Catto 19th century educator, baseball player, abolitionist, and civil rights activist who was gunned down at the age of 32.
He was shot and killed on Election Day in October 1871, a day marked with violence throughout the city as many white rioters stormed through black neighborhoods in an attempt to silence the black vote. But now, more than 140 years after his tragic death, he’s making history once more, right outside City Hall for all to remember.
That was the Catherdral. It is where the Archbishop presides.
The Logan Hotel is the one me and wifey stay in on date night. Urban Farmer restaurant is nice
I used to go to wanna makers too with my mother. Yup I remember Woolworths too. Hey toon can you tour the Mantua section? And around Girls High. I live in the South now and haven't been there in years.
Toon: Nice dog sir....
Sir: Crickets...
Toon: 🤔NICE DOG SIR....
SIR:😳 THANK YOU.... 🏃 🐕>>>>>>>
ME: 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Back in the 50's 60;s & 70;s there were 4 major department stores in the downtown area, Gamble's, Lit Bros, Strawbridge & Clothier, and John Wanamaker
Gimbles
@@daltonturgott6063 thx, wasn't sure how they spelled it, so long ago
There were two others-- Frank and Seder and Snellenberg's.
3617 Haverford avenue Philadelphia pa 19104. This is Dupree studios Mantua in west Philly. Good spot for a tour. That whole neighborhood. Thx toon. Hope we can talk again
No store can compare to Wanamakers. The organ the floors of fashion. Best store
Thanks for bringing back memories. I remember wandering around center city after work at Christmas time. Carols played. Could get roasted chestnuts from vendors. Gazed at the department store windows especially the glorious Wanamakers.
BTW, you said you like to continue learning (so do I) so please take this as a "learning experience." This is about the flags: Cam-er-roon is an African country. Bell-a-ruus is near Russia and I think it was once part of the Soviet Union. The modern art sculpture Kopernic refers to Nicolaus Copernicus who laid the foundations of modern astronomy. www.associationforpublicart.org/artwork/kopernik/#
Keep up the good work!
Erected means built by who ever love the video Toon 215 from Kate in Scotland
The area near city hall with the stands and stalls is supposed to be setup like a German style Christmas village. It all looks fabulous but Covid kept me away.
Just watched the first two seconds & then had to check the year this was made. I knew this had to be during Covid because it looks like a ghost town!
2008 comcast 1 was built
You gotta IG?
Less festive than when i.grew up there. John Wanamakers did a better job with their window display than Macy's Also we used to have more Christmas lights and decorations
SEPTA 1234 MARKET STREET 😅😅😅
What a differents from Kensington🤷♀️😪 unbelievable
It's not called a cathedral, it is a "Basilica". Maybe a catholic person can explain this designation. Essentially it's the top catholic church building in the city.
Belarus is pronounced "Bell-A-Ruse". It's a country located near Russia.
🙏👍🙌
No starbucks?
Love them huge rats, peace and God Bless
