Streets Dept. now says tracks will NOT be paved over | PhillyNow | A blog about Philadelphia news, politics and culture by Philadelphia Weekly

Face meet egg: Yesterday, Philadelphia Weekly reported that there was a tentative plan to pave over the rail tracks on 11th and 12th Streets in Center City, from Market to South Streets, this fall. That information came directly from Keisha McCarty-Skelton, Public Relations Supervisor at the Philadelphia Streets Dept., by email, who confirmed said information with an engineer on the project.

McCarty-Skelton now tells PW that the streets will be paved, but the tracks will remain!
