Don's Interactive Map of Philadelphia

View Larger Map

As I get older and we grow closer, I feel it is important to pass on my history and knowledge of Philadelphia to you, my blog reading children (or "blogren"). I first considered an exhaustive 10-volume series meticulously researched, expertly illustrated and cleverly written by me over the next 30 years. What better token of affection and respect can one man give to his audience, nay, the world?

But then I thought: "Hey, Google Maps!"

Be sure to bookmark this post and check back often. Mine and Philly's history are intermingled like two angry lovers: pungent, dirty and alive! I will be updating as she and I continue to grow and embarrass ourselves.

Thanks to Londonist for the inspiration.
