    Default Question about Phila Gun Permit Unit

    I'm leaving work early and heading down to hand in my application. How is the parking down there? Am I gonna have to park blocks away and walk up, or is there a lot nearby?

    There is sometimes street parking on 9th or around the block the building is on. I have been down there a number of times and have not parked in a lot (not sure where the nearest lot is). Take some quarters, if you get a meter spot put in at least an hours worth of time.

    Found a lot a block away. Total time in and out was about a 1.5 hrs. Man, there are some shady looking characters in that place.

    Really? Guess I should be happy there was not one other person in there when I went in yesterday.

    Yeah. Plus it was about 90 degrees in there. Now the waiting game begins!

    And that's just the cops working there. Did you get fingerprinted by the one with the 4 inch nails poking through her rubber gloves?

    LOL! I really wasn't paying attention. And I was talking about the cops.... JK! The interviewing officer was pretty cool. As soon as I got called up, she said " I'll make this real quick." Probably because both my references were Philly cops, and one of them is well known down there.
