While we all wait with bated breath to see how our new Lord and Savior, Numero 44 himself, is going to save us from further economic peril, we thought we'd give you a preview of the action Philadelphia might be seeing when the Obama Economic Stimulus Package kicks into high gear. President Obama has made it very clear that he sees infrastructure revitalization as the key to the country's success in the 21st century. Investing in the very systems that keep society running—roads, sewers, transit, buildings... basically anything that needs to be constructed—will give cities like Philadelphia a boost they could never get as tax revenue continues to plummet. And it creates jobs while building the structures needed to keep current job centers alive and thriving.

We're all very familiar with the iconic Obama image which was reproduced in hundreds of thousands of posters during the campaign.

Andrew is a planner at Penn Praxis and sometime-contributor to PlanPhilly.com—meaning we can count on him to keep us updated on all sorts of cool stuff going on in Philly's urban development. But for now, he's just going to tell us about some serious soul food. Welcome, Andrew!

Our next new writer is Jim Yi, who spends his days battling traffic on the Schuylkill to get to and from his job in King of Prussia as a Software Engineer. He spends the rest of his time playing Rock Band, watching Gossip Girl, and secretly wishes he was as smart as Chloe on 24 (don’t we all?). Jim has lived in Austin, Houston, Chicago and New Orleans, but Philly is now happy to have him. Welcome Jim!
