Philadelphia Could Get Rubber Sidewalks

City councilman Jim Kenney recently toured Chicago to see environmentally-friendly city projects there. He came back with a number of ideas on which he plans to hold hearings.

I think it is a great idea. We put in rubber floors in several verizon stores behind the counters so that it is easier on the feet for employees who stand all day. They look really good and will last a very long time.
