Tent City 3 has moved to the skinny lot behind the AM/PM at 22nd and Cherry in the Central District. The lot used to belong to the petrol corporation ARCO but they sold it to the Cherry Hill Baptist Church (CHBC) in the mid-90s for $50,000. The CHBC is located across the street and was using the lot for parking, and now have turned it over for use by tent city.
The rumor is that the CHBC will be destroying their circa-1900 blue church and building a new one. Of course as a viewer I like the old building and think it should stay.
