City Cast Philly

Can South Street Stay Quirky?

Listen Later

This is part 3 of our South Street Series covering what we consider Philly's most iconic street. We take a look at the mix of businesses that have made South Street distinct, with interviews from Drexel University Professor Richardson Dilworth, Condom Kingdom owner Stu Schlaffman, Streets Dept. founder Conrad Benner, Councilmember Mark Squilla, and Jim’s South Street president Ken Silver. And ICYMI, listen to Part 1 and Part 2 of our series on the history of South Street!
