- This past weekend was a pretty good one for some people (like this Phillyist writer, for one), but not for everybody; between 11:47 PM Saturday night and 1:42 AM Sunday morning (that's less than two hours), five people were shot in four separate incidents in Philadelphia.
- Hey, want an office building? Eleven are on sale in Center City right now, including the entire city block made up of 10 Penn Center, 11 Penn Center and 1800/1880 John F. Kennedy Blvd. With this many buildings up for sale, it could be a record year in Philly for real estate transactions. Follow the link for an economic explanation for why this is happening; we tried reading it ourselves, but it made our head hurt. The point is, this is apparently a good thing; it means the real estate market is booming.
- A source apparently told the Daily News that a local group called Philadelphia Media Holdings is about to seal the deal and buy their paper, as well as the Inquirer, with an official announcement following some time this week. Huh. We'll believe it when we see it.
