Property’s Photo of the Week: Philadelphia Knows How to Keep Summer Heat in Check

These kids have the right idea.

Sigh. Does this photo bring on a rush of old summer memories for you too? Regardless, we felt it was a neat capture of South Philadelphia in the days burning toward the summer solstice, which, while we’re on the subject…come on. It’s not technically summer yet, but we know.

It’s barged it’s way into our late spring barbecue and taken over the grill without permission. Yeah, we definitely know.

So, Philly, how are you handling the heat? In a room with the air-conditioner on blast? Lounging by your neighborhood pool? Or  are you just facing it head-on and with plans to celebrate its “official” return?” Include the #phillyscape hashtag to your photos showing us how you keep cool in the city!
