If you’ve ever seen a driver navigating a scooter, maybe a Vespa, around town, perhaps you thought, that person looks ridiculous. Or maybe you thought, ah, they know the score.
Whatever the case, you may be soon seeing a lot more folks on scooters, especially in Queen Village or Society Hill.
Members of the South Street Headhouse District (SSHD) recently approved an application from Penn Scooters for an all-electric scooter rental/retail location at 115 South Street.
It's the white building in the foreground. Penn's Landing in the distance.
“It’s exactly the type of business we’re looking for,” said Krystal Souvanlasy of SSHD. She said they’re looking for unique businesses that will attract new folks to the area.
Perhaps this scooter business will bring more tourists looking for a quick way around the city. But will pedestrians take kindly to scooter traffic?…

We've stripped-down everything about Philly, the funny neighborhood names, the confusing borders, the restaurant gossip and the hearsay about what is being built (or going bankrupt). We've defined neighborhood boundaries, networked with developers, hacked into city files (not really) and have no qualms about releasing this real estate information to you. Whether you are an out-of-towner or a local, we know you'll appreciate all the hard work that went into bringing you the real feeling of Philadelphia.
