Map Geeked: What Philadelphia will (hopefully) look like in 2035

Maps — even sorta crudely drawn ones — are a special kind of eye candy.

Which is why we dig the map above. It comes from the May 27 meeting for PHILADELPHIA2035, a Philadelphia City Planning Commission project that invites the public to weigh in on Philly's future from now until the spring of 2011. According to the 11 or so maps from the meeting, common hopes and dreams for the year 2035 include waterfront development, bike-y stuff, getting rid of blight, urban ag and cover for I-95. Check out the rest of the maps from May 27 here.
