The Convention Center expansion project was halted on Christmas Eve when the Preservation Alliance of Greater Philadelphia obtained an injunction ordering wrecking crews to stop work. The preservationists want to save the two small but historic Broad Street buildings that workers were set to dismantle. Today they'll travel to Harrisburg to ask a Commonwealth Court judge to convert the temporary demolition ban into a permanent one.
Seven state lawmakers, naming the city as the defendant, brought a lawsuit before the Pennsylvania Supreme Court yesterday asking that all construction of the proposed SugarHouse Casino be halted, "contending its license to build on submerged land beyond the river's edge is illegal."

Tonight the Japan America Society of Greater Philadelphia will be screening Satoshi Kon's Tokyo Godfathers on the 7th floor of the Bellevue (Broad and Walnut Streets) at 6:30 PM. If we're reading this right - the film follows three wildly different homeless characters as they care for an abandoned baby on Christmas Eve. Hmm. Not exactly your traditional holiday story...but the tag line, "Meet the ultimate dysfunctional family," is something people of all cultures seem to relate to around the holidays.
