Anyone near Philly

[davelovins]

Hey guys. I'm going to be in Philly for work for the next 2 months. I am going to bring some hand tools, but I was wondering if anyone has extra workspace or are just interested in meeting others into glass. If you know of anything I should see or do while in Philly, that's cool too. Thanks.
