There are even more devious things done by the city that need to be added.
This is the worst city government and muncipal system. They will kill their own citizens and lie and cover up their own crimes over and over again and don't care who they hurt.

Welcome to the jungle
I know what you're saying though,my wife works in a potentially 'sick' building...that is,one of those 'historic'(old & dirty)buildings in center city. People in there have been sick and coming down with the same kinds of illnesses attributed to sick buildings...but do they even acknowledge it?...Of course not...they probably do the standard Philly thing and deny and try and turn the finger back on them saying 'it not us,it must be you!'
Anyway my mother lives in central NJ(where things actually make sense compared to here)...they not only did not allow building on toxic land,but actually went to the extent of buying people out of their houses that were on this toxic land(creosote)and redoing the entire neighborhood...
