Sunlit brick avenue and a deep green corner. A portrait of the Lehigh light, not a photograph of the shop door.

The corner

On this block since 2011.

26th and Lehigh. A wide avenue, a step-free door, and the same work the block has used this shop for since it opened.

The door is at 2602 W Lehigh Ave, Philadelphia 19132. Lehigh runs east-west, wide enough for the Route 54 bus, a stroller, and a prescription bag.

This corner sits just east of 29th Street, on the North Philadelphia side of the line. Strawberry Mansion is the neighborhood along the south side of the avenue. East Fairmount Park and the historic house are a short ride west.

The shop’s own site, and the first neighborhood notes, date to 2011. A neighbor wrote that Lehigh Avenue finally had a drugstore on the block. The work since then is the same: fill it, deliver most of North Philadelphia, bill the cards this counter already knows, and talk at the window.

The other counters.

Sister shops. Same kind of work, different corners. Their sites are not up yet.
