Abstract (sommario):
On November 21, 1903, the Pennsylvania Railroad announced that its north-south through trains would no longer enter Broad Street Station in downtown Philadelphia and would stop instead at West Philadelphia. Nor would the company sell tickets from that station to downtown. These schedule changes, which seemed minor to the company and were intended to reduce congestion in the central city, threatened downtown merchants and manufacturers who worried that buyers would shift to more accessible cities. Philadelphia had been sidetracked, theNorth Americanreported. The result was an eruption of boycotts, protests, and petitions that pitted nearly every local trade association against the railroad. Encouraged by theNorth American's editorials, partisan reporting, and stinging cartoons, the protesters forced the Pennsylvania to back down, and in March 1904, through trains returned to Broad Street. The newspaper cloaked this local business dispute in the language of antimonopoly, linking the fears of small businessmen to national anti-railroad concerns. The sidetrack episode also helped launch modern corporate public relations, as the Pennsylvania—stung by this threat to corporate autonomy—soon hired Ivy Lee as its first publicity agent.

Abstract (sommario):
In the United States, the endowments of non-profit research universities are climbing into the 8-figures and the wealth disparity between research universities and their home cities are becoming increasingly evident. Some of these universities are calling to their community engagement initiatives, including service-learning programs, as substitutes for direct monetary contributions to their home cities. This research article seeks to investigate the extent to which the University of Pennsylvania devotes its institutional resources to support its service-learning program, Academically Based Community Service courses, which it highlights as one of its initiatives that supports its Philadelphia community. This case study ultimately finds gaps in the institutional support that the University of Pennsylvania provides. The article’s findings call into question the extent to which community engagement can substitute direct monetary assistance to Universities’ communities.

Abstract (sommario):
Safe Start is a community health worker program representing a partnership between a high-volume, inner-city, hospital-based prenatal clinic; a community-based organization; a large Medicaid insurer; and a community behavioral health organization to improve perinatal outcomes among publicly insured pregnant women with chronic health conditions in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. As of June 2019, 291 women participated in the program. Relative to a comparison group (n = 300), Safe Start participants demonstrate improved engagement in care, reduced antenatal inpatient admissions, and shorter neonatal intensive care unit stays.

Abstract (sommario):
The pedestrian countdown signals (PCS) treatment involves the display of a numerical countdown that shows how many seconds are left in the flashing DON’T WALK interval. Although many studies have attempted to evaluate the safety of PCS, the results have been inconsistent for many reasons, including inadequate sample size and the inability to control for possible bias from regression to the mean and from exposure. This study performed a before-after empirical Bayes analysis using data from 115 treated intersections in Charlotte, North Carolina and 218 treated intersections in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to evaluate the safety effects of PCS. The evaluation also included 136 reference intersections in Charlotte, and 597 reference intersections in Philadelphia. Following the implementation of PCS, total crashes decreased by approximately 8% and rear-end crashes decreased by approximately 12%, and these reductions were statistically significant at the 95% confidence level. Pedestrian crashes decreased by about 9% and this reduction was statistically significant at the 90% confidence level. Economic analysis revealed a benefit-cost ratio of 23 with a low of 13 and a high of 32.

Abstract (sommario):
Many women and women-run associations were involved in historical urban beautification in the United States, especially tree planting, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. While men had formal roles as city foresters, arborists, horticulturalists, and landscape architects, women from elite families sometimes labored for free to organize and advocate for urban tree planting. Tightly knit social circles of high-society women in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, yielded much greater influence in nascent tree planting and park creation movements than has generally been recognized. They often contributed their time, finances, input, and skill to landscape planting projects; however, they were not considered equal to the men who were compensated employees. These women planted, plotted, studied, and persevered, overcoming preconceived notions of womanhood, although their meaningful efforts were often viewed as merely an offshoot of their feminine domestic role. For women, limited by opportunities in male-dominated arenas, shaping their cities was a socially accepted means for empowerment. Ellen Waln Harrison (1846 to 1922) was a key figure in civic beautification in her hometown of Philadelphia and beyond. Ellen Harrison was married to Charles Custis Harrison, Provost of the University of Pennsylvania, and she personally oversaw campus landscaping efforts, and was referred to as his “right hand.” Her story is emblematic of a larger trend regarding women in botany, horticulture, and urban forestry around the turn of the 20th century.

Abstract (sommario):
Chapter 6 addresses Franklin’s inherently sociable nature, which led him to join many organizations such as the Masons in Philadelphia. He founded the American Philosophical Society, and the Junto, out of which emerged the Library Company. These institutions were based on high-minded discussion of ideas and provisions for public health as well as ordinary efforts to improve Philadelphia’s physical conditions. The chapter outlines the founding of the College of Philadelphia, the Union Fire Company, and the Pennsylvania Hospital, as well as the improvement of sidewalks, installation of streetlights, and the creation of a private militia. It discusses Franklin’s commitment to life in Philadelphia—another connection to Protestantism which started as an urban faith and in much of its early development depended on institutions and churches located in cities.

Abstract (sommario):
Abstract The hard coal district of eastern Pennsylvania was an important industrial center in the nineteenth century. But it was far from the urban paradigm often associated with the industrial revolution. Its cities and towns were separated by long stretches of rural and semirural landscape, much of it mountainous and heavily wooded. Molly Maguireism could never have taken hold in cities like New York or Philadelphia; but the unique geography and topography of the anthracite region were ideally suited to the adaptation to American soil of violent practices derived from the Irish countryside.

Abstract (sommario):
Abstract The revival of the inner city is under way across the United States. The changes taking place in New York, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, and Atlanta also have been occurring in Washington, D.C., Miami, Kansas City, San Antonio, Denver, San Francisco, Portland, Seattle, and elsewhere. In some cities the revival has just begun or is progressing slowly. Revitalization in Philadelphia and Detroit, for example, has been limited to a relatively small number of neighborhoods. Unlike other large cities, Philadelphia and Detroit are still evolving away from the original industrial economies that made them grow. As a result they continue to shed population, slowing the redevelopment of the neighborhoods. Yet even these lagging metropolises show signs of innercity revival.

Abstract (sommario):
How will new grassroots resistance groups affect the electoral prospects and activities of the Democratic Party? This chapter draws evidence from groups in many states, but it principally analyzes changes in the large, variegated state of Pennsylvania—where more than two hundred grassroots anti-Trump groups emerged after 2016 in all but a dozen of sixty-seven counties. Drawing from answers to online questionnaires given by leaders of eighty-two groups, the chapter details group involvements in the 2018 election and analyzes the changing relationships between grassroots groups and Democratic candidates and local parties in five Pennsylvania settings: inner cities, metropolitan suburbs, upscale exurbs, declining rust belt areas, and rural counties.

Abstract Edger allan poe’s younger contemporary and fellow Philadelphian Charles God frey Leland (1824-1903)Wrote in his Memoirs (1893) that “Whoever shall write a history of Philadelphia from the Thirties to the era of the Fifties will record a popular period of turbulence and outrages so extensive as to now appear almost incredible” (216), Leland was referring to a time when many whites felt compelled to shape social life as they saw fit and by whatever means required, no matter how violent. On numerous occasions and in response to various perceived outrages, white mobs took to the streets of Philadelphia and other cities, wrecking buildings and other personal property and attacking—and sometimes killing—the human subjects of their wrath. Free blacks and white abolitionists were frequent targets, undergoing numerous assaults across the Northeast, particularly in the 1830s. One of Philadelphia’s worst riots occurred in May 1838, during the second Anti-Slavery Convention of American Women. Antiabolitionist whites attacked and burned the Friends Shelter for Colored Orphans, a black church, and the Pennsylvania Hall for Free Discussion, the city’s newest and largest building and the site of the convention. Poe lived in Philadelphia at the time of this riot; he had moved there sometime in early 1838 and stayed until 1844.

Abstract As The 1820s drew to a close, there was no respite inJames Forten’s war against the forces of colonization. It was obviously disheartening to him to see how many well-meaning individuals in Philadelphia’s white community had been won over by the American Colonization Society’s propaganda. Forten’s lawyer, Richard Peters, had given the ACS his grudging support. Bishop William White, his denomination’s spiritual leader in Pennsylvania, had endorsed it. Even the likes of abolitionist Roberts Vaux had been convinced. What Vaux found so repugnant in 1820 he had come to see as a necessary if regrettable “solution” to America’s racial problems by 1830. White churches in Philadelphia and in many other towns and cities throughout the North often dedicated their July Fourth collections to the cause or held special concerts of prayer, with donations going to advance the work of the ACS. Benevolent female Friends in Philadelphia sponsored two black women to teach at a school in Liberia, and there were similar initiatives elsewhere among other well-intentioned whites. It was all very depressing to Forten and other free people of color, who were sure the ACS aimed at nothing less than their expulsion from America.

Abstract (sommario):
Abstract Delineation of land is the creation of titles. Most of the dry surface of the Earth is delineated to some degree. The exact degree is predictable by a simple criterion of property-rights analysis: if the benefits are greater than the costs, then the land is delineated and a boundary emerges. The effect of delineation is a reduction in negotiation costs. Uncertain boundaries dampen the incentives to invest in land potentially under dispute. In such cases, ownership over the value added to the land may some day have to be negotiated. For example, no homeowner should enclose his yard without first surveying the property. On a grander scale, no government should permit land improvements near a border if the border itself is in dispute.1 One way to lower the negotiation costs of ownership is to use simple signals to delineate the land. The rivers of the United States are a good example. They separate the United States from other nations, states from states, cities from cities, and even boroughs within cities from other boroughs. For example, the Rio Grande separates the United States from Mexico; the Mississippi River separates all the states to its east from all the states to its west; the Delaware River separates Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, from Camden, New Jersey; and the East River separates the borough of Manhattan from the boroughs of Queens and Brooklyn in New York City.2 Habitats also have their boundaries. Sometimes the boundaries are visible barriers like oceans, mountains, and deserts. But usually the boundaries are less visible.

Abstract (sommario):
Active, multi-dimensional learning is needed to establish higher-level scientific inquiry. Researchers who are engaged in scientific discovery are a valuable resource to communicate the link between science, society, and sustainability. Nontraditional settings like faith-based organizations and hobbies can play an important role in fostering greater scientific understanding. This chapter highlights the role that community structure (social, racial, and economic demographics) plays in developing successful project components by considering various theoretical frameworks to communicate sustainability principles to underserved communities. The researchers in these case studies presented the topics of ocean acidification and healthy soil to inner-city communities in Tampa, FL and Philadelphia, PA by utilizing authentic science research activities. Learners maximized the opportunities to construct new hypotheses and improve decision-making related to environmental stewardship behaviors and food security issues. A secondary but transformative outcome was increased interest in STEM fields among youth in cities with traditionally low performing schools.

Abstract (sommario):
Studies have shown that low-income communities and communities of color are more likely to live in neighborhoods experiencing multiple environmental burdens and disproportionate vulnerability to the impacts of climate change in American cities. The practice of redlining in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania has caused environmental injustice in ways that might not have been obvious at that time however there are neighborhoods that are still affected by this practice. These areas have the lowest median household incomes, lowest life expectancies, and highest population of African American people compared to the rest of the city. The main objective of this research is to map the heat vulnerable neighborhoods in Philadelphia and suggest ways to mitigate urban heat island. Mapping heat vulnerability shows the areas that are more susceptible to the exacerbating effects of heat. The research began with mapping factors that determine vulnerability, such as heat exposure, access to green space/tree coverage, median household income, life expectancy, and race. Mapping these indicators allowed the vulnerable neighborhoods to be pinpointed. The most vulnerable neighborhoods chosen were Tioga and Carroll Park. To conduct a better analysis the least vulnerable neighborhood, Chestnut Hill, was chosen to compare to. Further, overlaying the Homeowners Loan Corporation redlining map to find out that the “hazardous” neighborhoods overlap with the most vulnerable neighborhoods. To continue the analysis with simulations, Rhino and Grasshopper (Ladybug Tools) were used to quantify the urban heat island indicators such as Direct Sun Hours, Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI) and Heat Stress Hours in both public spaces and streets. In summary, this research proposes design interventions, including strategies of adding greenery, to mitigate the urban heat island effect. The simulations showed that the neighborhoods that are the most heat vulnerable would have to drastically change their environment to mitigate the urban heat island.
