{"product_id":"welcome-to-market-east-natasha-hulme-9781548372552","title":"Welcome To Market East","description":"In 2014, Street Photographer, Michael Penn set out to capture the area of Center City Philadelphia known as Market East. Market East was home to the Reading Terminal, The Gallery, a sprawling urban mall, the original Strawbridge \u0026amp; Clothier, John Wanamaker's, Lit Brothers, and Gimbels department stores. Market East spanned from Philadelphia's City Hall to Independence Mall at 6th street. Gentrification plans included demolition and renovations to the seven block corridor. The area was swiftly rebranded as \"Jefferson Station,\" once the barricades went up and heavy machinery moved in. Penn's intention for \"Welcome To Market East,\" was to document urban decay, homelessness, the drug addicted, and troubled inhabitants that called the sidewalks, alleys, and entryways of Market East \"home\" since the area began its decline in the early 1990's. Today, the corridor is winding down from a massive billion-dollar makeover, making this street photography book a must-have for any historian.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Natasha Hulme, Michael Penn\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1548372552\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781548372552\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/25\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.11lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 8.50w x 0.52d","brand":"Natasha Hulme","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45898703405311,"sku":"9781548372552","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_79091db0-8b7e-47a5-bf49-da06d75a5440.jpg?v=1721376904","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/welcome-to-market-east-natasha-hulme-9781548372552","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
