A photographic exploration in and around Philadelphia's infamous Callowhill Industrial Historic District, the neighborhood filmmaker David Lynch credits with inspiring his first feature-length film, Eraserhead. Photographer and tour guide, Bob Bruhin, takes the reader on a tour of the dramatic architecture, gritty streets, and sometimes abandoned infrastructure that make up this darkly demented square mile of city. This attractive 178 page volume photographically documents the look and feel of Philadelphia in and around the Callowhill Industrial Historic District as it was in the years between 2007 and 2014. Revised and expanded text discusses life in Callowhill as it is in the 21st century as well as how the neighborhood influenced painter and filmmaker David Lynch in the late 1960s.
