This makes the discussion of ADA compliance come back for sure. There is no way for someone with various disabilities to navigate this corner now. But probably unsafe to be near it anyhow.

"In 2026, railroad fans across the country will have the rare chance to witness history in motion as Union Pacific’s legendary Big Boy No. 4014 travels coast to coast in celebration of America’s 250th anniversary. The world’s largest operating steam locomotive is expected to make several appearances across Pennsylvania, giving railfans, photographers, and curious travelers a once-in-a-generation opportunity to experience the thunder, steam, and spectacle of a true American icon."
The engine will be in Philly for Independence Day, and will take a route through the fabled Horseshoe curve in Altoona (but tickets are already sold out to view that)
Does anyone have any feedback on the Copperleaf Apartments? https://copperleaferie.com/
I'm interested in renting.
Anyone know of local shops/restaurants/coffee shops etc hiring part time? I’m looking to get out of the house and meet some new people, while making some cash of course.
Coming to visit Erie next week and was wondering when people go to fly kites on the beach? Are there specific days/times? It was always impressive to watch, but that was years ago. Not even sure if people still do that.

I bought a horse trailer converted into a mobile coffee trailer from a man named Michael O’Connor from Erie, Pa. The trailer came with a fraudulent title/shoddy work/unsafe for the road, per PennDOT, and the Erie court systems seem to have this man in their back pocket because a majority of the charges were dropped.
Supposedly this man has a new title, why I’m unsure, because the “original” title was never in his name. When asked how I would know this title was legit, they said they didn’t know, but still are sending it to me anyways??????
Just beware of this scam artist. $15k down the drain and a business that was only a dream.
Where are the best places to get matcha in Erie?
I’m an adult looking for an ASD/ADHD evaluation and my insurance limits who I can go see, but I wanted to ask if anyone has a personal recommendation. Most reviews online say all are not great, but I really just want the evaluation.
Drove through a couple hours ago and noticed a LOT of teens there around the basketball courts. Never seen so many people there.
A couple hours later I saw 4 or 5 cop cars zooming over there. Went over to see what was happening and they had the whole block shut down. Somebody said there was a shooting.
Anybody know anything else? Looks like one of those teen takeover things I keep hearing about.
There is a bad car vs motorcycle crash between 5 and Pittsburgh Ave. I hope there is no casualties. Most of the motorcycle appears to be destroyed. Police closed the whole area for at least 2 hours. Many people were standing and was not great to see them taking pictures or videos. This is not a show!
What is going on?

Hello! Out of towner here, but will be visiting again next week. Looking at Apple Maps the past few days it has shown Bayfront Parkway closed down by State street and all the restaurants and hotels. Is it a long term closure and how does it affect getting to the businesses and hotels in the area? Thanks!
Unfortunately our A/C went down. We have American Home Shield (AHS) home warranty which was recommended by many realtors. We purchased the complete tier which is the highest and my understanding when we chatted with AHS that replacement for HVAC/laundry…etc will be covered completely after that copay of $125. Anyway, we requested the service for diagnosis and repair, first contractor came in and claimed it’s an easy fix, took pictures and said will come back in few days. Never showed up again despite multiple phone calls. So AHS finally assigned someone else. Second contractor came and tried to repair it then claimed the whole system needs replacement from condenser to A/C coil…then when I asked about the process, he claimed that I still have to pay him directly $1500-2000 for extra work not covered by AHS, and just to wait for communication by AHS for estimates and approval. He spoke in a passive aggressive way that if I don’t approve it, then AHS will only give me $500 (yes, not 5K) and have to find someone else for the whole work. I am really surprised with this because the highest tier option we purchased, called “complete”, states that coverage is even higher than other plans, e.g., up to $15K or so for HVAC compared to other plans that cover up to $5K. It’s getting really warm here despite have ceiling fans, dehumidifiers…etc and temp inside is above 80…so this is not sustainable. What are your thoughts and recommendations? I have a feeling that the contractor just wanted to make extra money. I remember he mentioned that I would only pay him $1.5K-$2K instead of over $6K if I didn’t have the warranty.
Has this ever been discussed? It seems like it would make financial sense all things considered. If this flock thing takes off then it would be the obvious next step for Erie.
