  Please try reporting this to 311. I did so for another trash issue, and the issue was resolved pretty quickly. You might be on hold for a while with 311, but it's worth the wait.

prostitution and drugs being sold Acknowledged

2200 Saint Albans Street Philadelphia, PA - Schuylkill Southwest

This issue has been reported to the police on multiple occasions to no avail. The building on the eastern end of the 2200 block of Saint Albans is falling apart, with broken and boarded-up windows. Yet it still houses a suspicious-looking "Checks Cashed" store and several unsavory characters, while serving as the location for the ongoing, blatant and shameless sale of both drugs and sexual favors. This is unsightly, a fire hazard, and a drive-by waiting to happen, despite the police's nonchalance. Please help us stop this!

  I have heard that the check cashing place has been sold and is under contract so hopefully things will be changing soon.

Construction on 20th Street and St. Albans Open

20th And St. Albans Street Philadelphia, PA 19146, USA - Schuylkill Southwest

As of 7/24, there has been construction on 20th St. between Fitzwater and Catherine to repair the sidewalks that were repaired over a month ago. Additionally, there is construction on the 2 collapsed houses on the 2000 block of St. Albans Street. This construction has resulted on the inability to park on my own street during the day. It has become an unbearable and unacceptable nuisance.

  I believe 720 is the correct address, but only based on the neighbors since there are no numbers. I would be shocked if someone was living in the house i'm referring to - i would be seriously concerned for their safety.

  Yeah, I'm not sure if someone lives there or not. I'm just curious what could happen: best case scenario is someone cleaning up the trash out front, its not like they can do anything to the structure or force the tenants out.

  So, what happens with this ticket? Does anyone take action or is it just logged as a complaint?

  Someone definitely lives at this house and was seen going inside. Where does the ticket go from here? There is trash lining the front of some houses on this block, but clearly not vacant.
