Walking Center City Philadelphia Downtown Walkthrough Reading Terminal Market Virtual Tour 

TOON I'M SO THANKFUL FOR GOOD FOLKS LIKE YOU THAT SHOW OUR WONDERFUL CITY IN A POSITIVE LIGHT! =)

Love seeing the sun shine through the buildings and into the streets. Thanks for the tour!

Your Philadelphia videos are the greatest. I was there back in May 2023. Loved it there.I have a dream of living in Philadelphia. Especially the Fishtown area.

I have lived here in Philadelphia for 10 years in a beautiful city ❤❤❤

I love The Reading Terminal Market. Whatever taste you like, they got it.

Beautiful views city hall downtowns philadelphia

Not just walking but giving information... I love it

HipCityVeg mention! Loved hearing "I don't really discuss food like that because I eat different and we don't need the controversy" lol. My first trip to Philly a few months ago, my uber driver was giving me restaurant and Philly cheesesteak recommendations the entire ride to my hotel and I just had to smile and nod, haha.

Going to Philadelphia next April for wrestlemania. First time in Philadelphia and first time in USA and I'm so excited!!!

Me n a friend was there May of this year. We really enjoyed ourselves. All I can say is I finally been 2 Philadelphia

my first time going there i was amazed

Awesome video dude. Camera work is great. Love the commentary. Moving to Philly soon, this was helpful.

Philly my love 🥰

29:25 I was there last year on a date, we saw a screening of The Third Man, a real classic. I'd love to go again, they always have interesting programming going on if you're not solely interested in the biggest new releases! Thank you for the video overall, I've lived in the suburbs all my life but I've felt truly in my element venturing into the city. Plan on moving there next year, knock on wood. ☺

No one in Philadelphia calls that line the Blue Line. It's the MarketFrankford Line or MFL. Or just the EL.

Thanks for the tour Toon it brings back some good memories. I walked from West Center City to the Liberty Bell. And another timed I walked from Hyatt Hotel to Rittenhouse Square.

Rally I enjoyed with the beautiful tour thanks bro

Nice Tour as usual Toon , just thinking that I''ll be about 86 when Sixer's New Arena Project is Done !!!

great views- u cutting it up on video too subscribed Lol

My hometown….

I took this walk for over 30 years

At the liberty Place building at the top of the building is an observation tower where you get a 360° panoramic view of the entire city it’s worth the visit and you can take great photos at the top of the building

New camera? Picture was great. Good tour too TOON.

HEY THE AMISH FOLK ARE VERY COOL! OK?

Idk why someone would stop you from touring Reading Terminal. I mean I get it, but you just gave them a free commercial. Now I am interested in going to it.

Calling Reading terminal a food court it’s like calling McDonald’s a French restaurant lol man it’s way more than a food court people from all over the world come to Reading terminal you know that. However great job once again my man

Philly is a decent 9-5 town. Great tour, Toon!!!!!!

I was in center city yesterday

I'll be in Philly only for a day and really want to make the most of it, how much time do you think will be good for reading terminal?

I am moving to West Philly if you haven't already done a tour for that!

11:27 Made the video 10x better lol

Not the Amish family being the amusement lmao

Thanks for the tour, seen all your hood tours, Love from Indonesia

I used to work at Wanamaker's and Strawbridge and Clothier in the mid 80's. They were the main places to shop at back in the day! Too bad they are gone. I used to shop at the Gallery with my girlfriend's back in the day too. We met at the Clothespin lol.

😊

Rittenhouse Square probably where Louis Winthorpe lived in the movie Trading Places

Rittenhouse Square IS the park at 18th and Walnut

👋🏽👋🏽👋🏽

I've lived in Philadelphia my whole life and center city we always just referred to it as town.

Going to Philly in July, this video helps.. Can you recommend a soul food spot in the hood? As a blk woman, I want to visit some parts where my peoples are @? Lol typed before you made the comment about food 🤷🏾

They already have a 76ers stadium in Wilmington de, why they decide to put one there now?

Wow, it's a pretty looking city.......After seeing so much of your RU-vid footage from Kensington I just assumed the whole city looked like that.......The subway and streets are very clean.

59:10 I remember that it used to be a McDonald's where a Panda Express is now.

It's safest to go to the subway trains in Philly!🚇🚇🚇🚇🚇🚇

They do have an ice skating ⛸️ rink in the winter and skating rink in the summer

🎶🎶 in the streets of Philadelphia 🎶🎶🎶🎶 🤦🤦🤷🤷🙋🙋

Thanks for the info and videos!! Is chestnut st. Area doable walking distance for everyday needs.? Groceries, pharmacies and other needs for someone who is looking to relocate but wants a walkable area? I mean if someone is not $$$😅I love that we can walk to parks, music/shows and festivals but I’m wondering if it’s very expensive for everyday living?

When you left Philly - where did you go?

Advice for improvements to Center City/Downtown: revitalize the alleys with lightings and lots of restaurants/cafe's and bars. Move the 76ers arena to downtown. Big cities have lots of traffic. Downtown San Jose is further along in downtown progress, but Downtown Philly ain't no slouch.

Finally, downtown has a water fountain just like the ones in Downtown San Jose, albeit it was shut off in the morning when Toon was in SJ.

Those 'simple folk' were Mennonite not Amish

Welcome to my CITY, be careful walking in the city, them kids aren’t playing games down there

Is there police in this area

Not everything is Kensington, needle park, Allegany, and drugs.

This dude wants to get noticed so badly. 😂🤣

say that to my face 😃😄😁😆

Nice video. But this is not the city I remember. It is almost empty compared to pre pandemic. Are still people working from home?

Palm trees in Philly?????? Say, what????? Yes

I used to work on 16th and Chestnut in the mid to late nineties, I would commute using the Path train from Camden, I always remember walking up from the subway stairway in Philly and it always smelled like homeless were pretty regular, doing their business there.

The gayborhood is not just 13th street, it's broad and chestnut through 11th and Pine. 13th street is just the major gay night life street.

That's how u know u N Philly because ppl can't drive

They need to plant more palm trees in South Philly and Northern Liberty/Fishtown to the north

I live downtown and it's not packed downtown anymore. A lot of offices are still closed and working remotely. Saturday's you will find more people downtown and Summer tourist. Still recovering this is post lockdown.

It pains me to see Downtown Philly is struggling with a lot of vacancies. It was fine back in 2018 when I was there, although there isn't a lot to do in heart of the city. Best highlights: Rittenhouse Sq., Reading Terminal, Kimmel Center and Museum of art

Man, in just one year, a lot has changed in this city. Those democrat policies are working well!

I always hated going into Center City. Always too crowded for me. The only good things I like down there are those food vendors.

fuck all the Philly politics ruining the city

Why do you always assume your viewers are dumb? Like a compass, if anyone knows one direction such as North the obviously south is opposite and it's so obvious I'm not gonna explain the rest.

Go Bills

Putting the arena in downtown by Chinatown and Reading Terminal is one of the most terrible idea's I've ever heard of. For 1 the businesses would not be able to handle the crowds especially with issues in production, travel and food cost. Adelman is a brilliant wealthy realtor, but working side by side with a major BLM organization to me seems like he is trying to fail proof his project while the other gains a pocket full of finances. The diverse feel of downtown is what makes Philly. Catering to just the sports crowd when Philly is a pioneer city seems it can strangle the life out of tourism even the holiday traffic the tourist industry depends on. I watched people like him in California make many promises build big things that kills people with more taxes, worse traffic and bad clientele and borderline criminal buy-outs. Not to mention the raising of rent cost will force many people who called 'Philly' home, just to line a few organizations pocket books. I hope this idea is shut down.

Yeah but I ain't see one homeless person.
