Old Skate spots from Phillly...

I walked around after my interview last week and took some photos of some now banned skate spots in Philly.

First up are the butter smooth ledges of LOVE park.


Then a planter that is supposed to keep people from grinding the ledges. The planter it self appears to be a popular spot to grind...
 
This next picture has a ledge that I always thought was like waste high and was proud to have been able to ollie onto... turns out that it is not even up to my knees.

 
The area that the ledge above was at also had these benches that were super slick... now they have big notches cut into them to keep people off of them.

 
In the same location as the bench and ledge above, they added a bunch of huge games pieces. Most of them were just dying to be skated. Take a look at this perfect metal domino that saw some action...
