#OccupyingAutumn in Philadelphia

Posted by: | Comments (0)

Here’s a peek at the morning rush through #OccupyPhilly on this crisp autumn Monday.

Admirers of Steve Jobs have been leaving remembrances on sticky notes on the front of the Apple Store on Walnut Street in the Center City section of Philadelphia, seen in these photo take Saturday. Others have left flowers and at least one early Apple computer. ©2011 Photos by Jim MacMillan
