\"It’s the oldest residential street in America, and you won’t believe it ... they use real people inside the houses, as if they actually live there. I think they might be the best actors in the whole wide world.\"
3. The Restrooms at Longwood Gardens
\"Philadelphia and America’s best kept secret. Forget the gardens, pop a squat in this lush, worldly, and architecturally superior baño. Really embrace the TP, too, it’s three-ply.\"

\"You know what they say, life imitates art.\"

\"For fitness. And good views. And good doggos.\"

\"It’s perfect for when I need some me time, a Swedish meatball, and the entire SVARTSJÖN collection. If anyone is interested, I’m really masterful with an Allen wrench.\"
7. The Pool @ Logan Square
\"For the maritime enthusiasts. It’s a be-and-be-seen type of place for a refreshing summertime dip. Flamingo pool floats welcome.\"

\"Get yourself a table on the Square and enjoy a nice diversity of cheeses and charcuterie and a rich espresso. Nothing will make you feel more like, uh … French?\"
9. Cheesesteak Crawl
\"You can’t pick just one. Prep yourself with a two-day fast and then follow your schnoz to all the top spots. Don’t let the scent of crab fries or Wawa hoagies throw you off the trail. It can be tempting, but stay the course. It’ll be the most epic scavenger hunt you ever do. Pro tip: pack that Pepto.\"
