That place is gigantic
I worked in center city from 1971-2014, took a variety of public transportation lines from NE Philly, saw many changes. I know you could walk from Gallery to 17th St underground. When the Comcast tower was built, you could enter on Arch between 18th & 19 & walk through to 11th St underground. I don't think I'd want to do it nowadays!
Hate to break the news to you but Malls are a dying breed. I have the Willow Grove and Montgomery Mall near me and they don't have the crowds like the 1980's. Once the internet arrived crowds have been dwindling every year....people shopping at home.
I grew up near neshaminy Mall and it's kinda shocking they're still in business.
Down to one anchor store, Boscovs.
Now I am closer to Franklin Mills aka Philadelphia Mills.
They are probably barely hanging on
@@tomv5988 Think Boscovs is closing stores (10?) this year, 5 in PA. Sears at the Willow Grove mall is closing early this year....Spring I think.
So pissed we had to go to Willow Grove recently. Apple store! Ugh
Cool! An old friend of mine, Robin Fredenthal, made that sculpture
I remember taking the trolley down torresdale avenue!
I use to work for Strawbridg & Clothier.
Wow amazing, would love to take a stroll thru all those shopping centres I'd have some fun shopping 🛍 😉
“The star of the show!” I love it!
I remember Litts Brothers. There was one on West Chester Pike in Havertown.
I haven’t been inside this mall since about the early 2000’s! I was trying to orient myself to where old stores were back in the day on the lower floor! (Kee bee’s, Sam goody) lol
Jesus you fell asleep in the sub way before captain??? I was down there and in the gallery every week all the time from sun up to sun down and the things I saw (especially at night!) were awful absolutely horrific.. You really are built different man! 😬
I walked the whole length of the concourse a few days ago. The city hall tunnel is gated off though. Why is the city hall tunnel closed?
That trolly used to be the CTA(Chicago Transit Authority)Green Hornet trollies when CTA discontinued in 1958 most of not all the trollies were destroyed and most that were saved was sent to Philadelphia SEPTA system
The Old Lit Brother’s!!! My God, it looks nothing like it did from my childhood. I grew up in Port Richmond and my mom would take us to see Santa, and the Christmas Village!! Awesome, I really enjoyed the video but you wouldn’t catch me dead walking under there. I’m a devout Catholic and chicken. 😂
Wh a y a drill on the Jean.
So thats where they stay,i always wondered how they stay so clean
I like those long treadmills to ! And no I don't think that's what they're really called haha but idk what their called either. They're cool tho
That's the new Fashion District mall?
No wonder it's deserted-prices too high
So if its raining out and u have to walk somewhere u can walk thru the mall to get there ?
Not many people there
They sure fooled you with that gated off area….lol
Brings back old memories when i went to school in center city walking the the underground stations.
Lits building the former lits brothers department store closed in 1977.
Is that the one that had free hat dressing
What mall is this ? Whats it called
The fashion district it's not so great of the mall.
It's a pain in the ass patco has the the tunnel closed between the broad street line cause of the homeless population camping out
Yeah I guess the solution now is to let them campout.
That's the idea now.
In other words that's what the experts came up with.
That’s terrible
Talking on a phone it may sound a little crazy you know, no one gonna mess with that, cursing and shit 🤪😂😂
Yea Septa went "digital" I can't get my discount anymore when I visit. 😡
Annoying isn't it? I loved tokens the keycards can be a headache to use but a great motivator for those who are thinking about getting a driver licenses. 😄
@@stschannelt1476 lol true. I tried driving in Philly once(2016) but got lost and 12 hours later the youHaul ppl got their truck back!! Lol 🤣
Is that Gilbert Gottfried?
Yes Market St East where the Old Lit Bros, S & C and the good ol Gallery used to be...Septa, Patco and Reg Rail stations...Septa Museum/Hdqtrs also exciting...I was there too many times long ago...Great day and TOODLES..
You are sooo entertaining!😂
Haven't been downtown in a minute it looks so clean now, yes that's how bad centercity used to look boys and girls nice to see some sort of change 😄
Good morning 🌞 PHILLY CAPTAIN on this Wed...Great video of you walking to scooting underground thru Market St thru the concourses, subway stations to City Hall...Always exciting and adventurous...
I love chickie and petes. I've been going there since I was a little kid with my dad. They have really good food
I'm surprised there wasn't more people there. How come the homeless don't go in there and walk around to get warm ??, rather then standing outside?
Thay will get harvested
You make any trip entertaining captian
nice one captian
Is conversative media telling the truth about the dangers associated with this area today?
Every media outlet says this area is dangerous
Id love to see more underground videos.
I want to see MORE.
cool place
I’m impressed how clean it is and no homeless living underground,so far.
Resident evil
Oh Hurricane Schwartz.... I don't trust any weatherman, but especially one that wears a bowtie.
Lmao! Why do so many people say this?
A very depressing place.
