Anybody like beer? I need to find a good beer drinking buddy.

The best place I've found to drink Beer sofar has been at the General Lafayette Inn. Its only two miles away from Summit Park, and it has some GOOD microbrewes. Then i've found another good place down in Old City. Though the beer just isnt the same as it was in back in Colorado 🙁

The place you were trying to refer to earlier was Manayunk. it is a fun place to live though I am up the hill in Roxbourough.

Well back to studying since its finals time for us, and man. good luck you guys, next year.:laugh:

Your taste in beer is quite discouraging. :barf:Personally I thought that it should be called FLAT tire because it tasted like rubber with a sort of flat taste to it. Wisconsin micro brews is where its at.

Good luck taking on my class, we've assembled quite a beer pong team. we would go through a keg a night (friday and satuday) playing beer pong. Its a good time. I would have to go with a good Stout for beer.

Well, if you'll accept a young monkey from Wisconsin, then I guess that I would like to join. Did you know that in Cancun they won't let men from Wisconsin participate in alcoholic challenges.😡
 
Anyone know where your going to be living yet?
 
I live in a high rise apartment complex right in front of the art museum called Parktowne Place. It's right in/around the Fairmount Park area, and it is awesome. The walk to the subway is about 15 minutes, but there is a free bus that comes every half hour right to the building you live in (there are four) that takes you to down market street to city hall where you can just jump on the subway. If anybody is interested, you can talk to me or check it out at
http://www.parktowneapthomes.com/

Now I'm not a rep for this place or whatever, but if anybody DID decide to live there....we could instantly become friends by letting them know I referred you so that I get free rent for a month. In return you get an awesome place to live (the location, price, proximity to stores like Whole Foods, Trader Joes, etc., and amenities that the place gives you that you can check out on the website) and I'll show you where you can score cheap crack around the city.

Also, I'm not advertising this place as the Elysium fields either - I like to think I know a good amount about center city and surrounding broad street locations too....so if you're looking at someplace and want an objective opinion, i may be able to help you out

Have you heard anything about Alden Park? I'm married with two little girls, 3.5 and 6 months old, so I need something that has space but isnt dangerous or full of rats... any ideas? Those apartments your living in look sweet, are they pretty pricey(if you don't mind my asking)? Also, cheap crack sounds great! I'll need something to help me stay up so I can study.
 
Ok, nevermind I found the prices. Any other suggestions?
 
Didn't some say crack? My wife and I are planning on living somewhere in the Manayunk or Roxborough area.

My older brother lives in the Roxborough area, nice area. I'd really like to live above a philly cheese steak house...

Yeah I forgot to mention I live with 5 other people, so price-wise for me its not as bad as somebody with dependents....Roxborough and Manayunk are awesome, but I'd be curious as to how long it takes to get to the d-school in the morning traffic. Did they tell you that?

My bro lives at Henry on the Park (Roxborough). I stayed with him when I interviewed and I'm pretty sure it was about 20 min. to get to the school.
 
One of the 1st year temple students said that a lot of people live in summit park...anyone know anything about that?

Here is a web site that allows renters to rate where they live... like always people who are pissed off will always be louder and more likely to complain than people who are happy... so take this with a grain of salt. Its been useful to my wife and I when a place looks shady or too good to be true.

Summit park will feel like a college dorm in apartments. You will be surrounded by professional school people... some people think that it is a little much at times.

I personally would not want to live there, but I am from philly originally and want to be in center city. I will also be living in the art museum area.

I know that there are some very affordable apartments in the old city area, on a street called Rodman i have about 3 separate apartments that i know people in d-school or med school that live there... They usually have 3-4 bedrooms so rent is shared.

If you want to live in center city there are affordable places to live if you search.
 
Does anyone know if there are Dental students that live at The Glen at Lafayette Hill? Lafayette Hill is about 8 min. outside of Roxborough.
 
Off topic but is the deadline for the first $750 Jan. 15?
 
is it possible to become a resident after your first year?
 
SUP, GUYS, I got my letter on Dec 5.. I will see you all in PHILLY...

You know what you'd probably be better off doing? You can get that list from Brian if you don't already have it of the current students contact information. Get at some of the juniors and seniors, who (overly generalized assumption coming up) probably are more in your situation of being either married or having kids. They'll also know where a ton of other people are living.

I actually checked that one out. Nice place, about 20-25 minute right to school. Very expensive though (about 1600-2000/month).

Haha no dude not at all - I just (heres another wild generalization) bet that most of the predents on here aren't authorities on the best places to support a family. I am, of course, an authority on everything else. 😎

15 minutes when I drive, 20 when my friend drives. Henry has no rats SuperFinger45. 👍
 
Sch81 or others... Do you know of other high-rise apartment complexes that might be even closer to the Broad St. Line? Perhaps deeper into CC.
 
Your a rat. How do you explain this?

Its kind of like the Flintstones. Instead of using feet, he uses extra rats to get the momentum going. Ie Henry has no rats so he cant go faster? Im confuesd too
