Holy crap... I've been jogging right across the steps of 2nd bank and all through that park in front and that area, couple times a month. And walking to/from bars on Chestnut and 2nd, via 4th st, several times in the last few months, after dark. The place looks completely safe, I would never suspect something like this there if I hadn't read it. This is pretty depressing, PHL was one of my favorite layovers due to that exact area's niceness and some great bars there...
