Getting a bike wheel caught in trolley tracks and wiping out is an unfortunate rite of passage for Philly cyclists. But on part of 11th Street, that’s no longer a problem. Reader Rob Emanuele sent us this photo of some guerilla track-work in the area, noting, “Someone filled in a stretch of unused trolley tracks between Vine and Callowhill on 11th street. To me it makes a strong statement about bike safety and community DIY.”

Lets take a minute to soak in this great NoseGo mural on 12th and Ridge at PhillyMoCA because it will be gone soon.

Billy G’s, an oldtime corner diner straight out of central casting, closed last year.
New this week in its place at 12th and Callowhill Streets in the Loft District is Quisqueya, a Dominican and Peruvian diner and BYOB (345 N. 12th St., 215-366-1063).
