Saigon Maxim Restaurant dumps trash into yard, attracting rodents and putrify... Open

612 Washington Ave Philadelphia, PA - Queen Village

The yard behind Saigon Maxim, a restaurant located at 612 Washington Avenue, is abused as an open-air trash pit. The refuse from the restaurant is left to putrify on the ground in half-open garbage bags, carelessly tossed on the ground or into the open bed of a beat up trash truck. The residents of the 600 block of Federal St are most affected as their windows face the yard and the rodents come and go via the gate on Federal St.

Illegal Curb Cut Acknowledged

622 Bainbridge Sreet Philadelphia, PA - Bella Vista

A house (624-28 Bainbridge) that already has 4 interior parking spaces built an addition (622 Bainbridge) and added a fifth. The Streets Department granted a curb cut, but #622 was never re-zoned to authorize the changed use. The owner has pursued his curb cut despite clearly articulated neighborhood opposition and the reality of the need for public parking so close to South Street. It is a case of public good versus private entitlement. When the property owner tried to get the curb cut in 2009, it was stopped and neighbors unanimously petitioned Councilman DiCicco to have a public hearing. That never happened, nor has there been a zoning hearing or notice. We have petitioned again, this time with more anger on our block than even before.

Dog Barking Archived

1230 Peters Street Philadelphia, PA 19147 - Passyunk Square

Someone keeps their pit-bull mix dog in their their tiny backyard. The backyard is also full of junk, so this poor dog has no space and no shelter and barks non-stop to be let in the house. This is extremely annoying to the neighbors (especially at 5am), and not very humane to the dog. 12 hours a day of barking/whining can drive anyone crazy.

Furniture Sale in the Bike Lane! Open

1300 Block Of Washington Ave Philadelphia, PA - Passyunk Square

#94056 has been archived but the problem has not gone away.

Please FIX this problem -- don't just archive it. This is unsafe for bicyclists - and the store is using the public right-of-way and putting bicyclists in the way of high-speed motorists.

Public Urination and Defecation Open

1351 Kater Street Philadelphia, PA - Wharton-Hawthorne-Bella Vista

Located at the intersection of Broad St. and Kater St., there is a Hess gas station. People are using the dumpster as a bathroom. Occurring multiple times a day, people are continually urinating behind the dumpster. My front door and window are located directly in front of the dumpster and men are continually exposing themselves. Being a woman, this makes the situation even worse. I have spoken to the manager and he says there is nothing that he can do. I have seen the people who work inside of the attendant booth direct people over to the dumpster since there is not a public restroom on site. There have also been cases where men have defecated and left their boxers covered and smelling horrible of @#$% outside my home until I personally had to remove them. The smell that builds up from the continual urination is unbearable!!. I have attached a picture of the area and you can see the urine stains on the cement. Please help!!!!

Litter EVERYWHERE Open

S 8th St Philadelphia, PA - Bella Vista

Because this is a very busy stretch with two bus stops close together as well as two convenience stores, there is a small river of litter that flows down the west-side sidewalk and in the gutters. Many of the residences are apartment buildings, there are a couple of restaurants, and many elderly. No one picks up the litter. It's disgusting.

Report trash, litter and dumping in your neighborhood Archived

1100 South 11th Street Philadelphia, PA - Passyunk Square

The restaurants that use the dumpsters on 11th Street between Washington and Ellsworth - across from the 7-11 - leave the doors to the dumpsters open, and allow trash water and/or cleaning supplies to just drain into the street drain. It's gross, smelly and also dangerously slippery on the sidewalk.

sidewalk is an ad-hoc traffic travel lane Open

1114 Washington Avenue Philadelphia - Wharton-Hawthorne-Bella Vista

There is a parking lot on south side of 1100 block of Washington Avenue that routinely uses the pedestrian sidewalk as traffic travel lane for loops into parking lot.. This is a very dangerous situation as cars especially on Sundays are constantly speeding around onto the sidewalk heedless of pedestrians.
