Abstract:
As the time I have spent at SLA me and my partner have been gathering data on people around Philadelphia and have put together a documentary on people's opinion on what  should do to solve this problem of Philadelphia neighborhood crime. This video is trying to get people to be awear of the situation that the city is in. During my time with this video I really learned about about Philadelphia history and the people surrounded by it.

http://triceratops.brynmawr.edu/dspace/handle/10066/1419


Summary- So When I reading this Korobin rob was giving his report on a neighborhood named  Brewerytown. and to pretty much sum up his whole article on it was that  it was doing really poor  so they pretty much abounded it and the city stop working on it for the moment until  over time the city budget brought back enough to get most of the house back. But by the time this happened. most of the Neighborhood had a different type of local and they where happy with the way it was. so he was trying to find out is it the right thinking for the city to take it back but it isnt that great looking.

This has to be one of my best scores so far because this has a data base telling me everything that from tribe times to the current times on what locals where like back then. it gives you what life has changed for people living in center city and  events that happen during that  neighborhood. if it could talk about crimes happening during that time that could also really help me with this capstone a lot more.

During the city history a neighborhood name appeared many times in our sources. Bridesburg, for example, first appeared on the 1839  map we consulted and then reappeared in 15 other of our sources up to the present day. Logan, which many Philadelphia-neighborhood aficionados think of as old, appeared in none of our early sources. Of course, Logan is in this list, as are truly esoteric neighborhoods. it was mapped out all around the city. old building that people are trying to fix to stop hight people from buying it

This lady named Tara clapper is talking about her own personal history with north philly because growing up he school and  her neighborhood was all she had. Crime rates and murder where up really high so she talks about how it wasn’t really safe for her to do anything out side. North Philly was historically a more prosperous area. Today, some sections of this neighborhood at large are undergoing attempted gentrification. The Neighborhood Transformation Initiative garnered funding to demolish abandoned and decrepit buildings, replacing them with newer tract homes. She just brings up  facts that happens in the city and the causes of things.
