Fresh Address: The Philadelphian at 2401 Pennsylvania Avenue
It's the ultimate in all-inclusive getaways - Imagine a place where you can access your grocery store, bank, dry cleaner, gym, pool, library, spa, salon, diner, and pharmacy - without actually stepping outside. (Um, hello Winter 2011, you really made us all a bunch of shut-ins!).
This is Where it's At: And when you do decide to step outside - whether you're hopping into your car from the covered parking garage or hopping on the on-site bus service to head to Center City, or going for a jog along the Parkway - you'll be in one of the most breathtaking and historic areas of Philadelphia - the Art Museum.
What do you think? Do you have what it takes to be a Philadelphian?
Well, we have an amazing opportunity to live at one of the city's most impressive addresses. Stay tuned for our blog series on the Philadelphian, at 2401 Pennsylvania Avenue, our Fresh Address.

Hulk Hoagie: The 1.25 Mile Wawa Hoagie in Philadelphia
Tomorrow is Wawa Hoagie Day, and as part of Philadelphia's Welcome America Celebration, the four ton sandwich will be served at 7 pm to the public on the Art Museum steps. Mayor Michael Nutter will deem June 30 "Hoagie Heritage Day" with a hoagie building competition, a Rocky look-a-like contest, and a screening of the Rocky film at 9 pm. Only in Philadelphia would an event like this ever make sense. Go grab a bite just to say you did.

A Museum Without Walls in Philadelphia
I have a confession to make: museums in the summer give me claustrophobia. It's not that I don't enjoy the exhibits - it's just that I'd rather be outside, in the sunshine or the fresh air. Lots of air conditioning and I just find myself with my arms crossed, dreaming of the moment when I see the outdoors again. But we're a city of museums and fantastic art exhibits worth checking out, and I'm always game for First Friday. I needed a solution.
That's why Museum Without Walls, a new way to experience art outside in Philadelphia, sounds just like my kind of thing.
The audio program, from the Fairmount Park Art Association, launches on June 10 and will be available to the public for free. You can access a tour through your cell phone or online. Which makes it even more my thing.
So what exactly are these audio tours? 35 sculptures along the Ben Franklin Parkway and Kelly Drive will allow anyone, anywhere, learn a little more about Philadelphia's outdoor art. The great thing about our city is that there is art all around us, with outstanding sculptures and installations en plein air.
Next time you're taking a walk or even a run along the Parkway or Kelly Drive, listen to some art on your way.

You Have to Kiss a Lot of Frogs Before You Find a Love Burger
Get ready for another outdoor burger shack. Frog Burger opens on the Parkway in June, from Frog Commissary Catering. It will be outside of the Franklin Institute in the Art Museum area.
This isn't just any burger joint, however. Expect items like chilled gazpacho and grilled sweet corn with chili lime butter, in addition to burgers such as the Love Burger, which comes smashed between two grilled cheese sandwiches and special sauce. Whoa. Or go with a regular burger or a healthier turkey burger. Hot dogs and Chesapeake crab rolls are also up for grabs. Desserts include shakes with Philadelphia Bassett's ice cream or cake shakes made with Frog Commissary's legendary carrot cake or their chocolate "killer" cake.
Care for a beverage? Local beers like Fleur de Lehigh and Kenzinger will be available, along with red or white wine, as well as red or white sangria.
The burger shack warns that its burgers are so juicy, you may need a bib, but don't worry, because they'll be selling them for customers who want to keep neat. Or take a silly photo. They'll also use recyclable products and green alternatives in their packaging.
If you're coming in from out of town, the Franklin Institute parking garage will offer discounted parking after 5 pm for Frog Burger customers.
