DC has everybody from Africa to the Caribean to South America. We have a huge festival with food and vendors. The streets are all shut down all day. Here is the site with info.

So now that you see we have one of the biggest Carnivals in the nation, what else were you referring to that Philly has that DC doesn't?

I said one of the biggest. It is probably third in the US behind NYC and Miami. And really, a picture of a rooftop and outside for that matter. Well if the rooftop is what you enjoy, more power to you lolll. What exactly are you doing on that roof top by the way? Talking....lol Also, what is the name of this lounge so I can see if it's a black lounge?

Yes the power is to me on this pic alone & My point is lol you made me laugh that we can look @ a skyline & enjoy the scenery WHILE WE DRINK HAVE CONVO & CHILL kinda like what you do @ your lounges but we have scenery & skyline with it.You got that?Throw some skyline pics up let me see so we can compare & from a club by the way.Yes blacks do frequent this club heavily but as far as strictly black eeh mostly but WE DON'T DEAL WITH SEGREGATION UP HERE everyone comes to chill with us. But google black night life in Philly & you'll see it there if this is going to turn into strictly black clubs you are the majority on that of course "chocolate city".But THE STRONG POINT I'M SELLING IS we are a strong presence with a lot of essence & culture scenery & vibe.For all to enjoy.

We are pretty much class A everywhere you look.
dude for first off shut the hell up, you sound ignorant
2. What makes you think blue collar means uneducated. Who are you to say that.
3. Philly is class A to big woop.
How about you learn about the collars before you talk trash.

Last time I checked my good friend works in a plant probably making more than you. He also went to temple and got a degree in engineering. He makes well over 80k. So saying blue collar workers are uneducated is dumb.
