Attracted by affordable rowhomes, proximity to Center City and safe, walkable streets, the area has become a thriving destination for single professionals, couples, families and Philadelphia’s emerging young gay community. The new East Passyunk Avenue, which diagonally bisects the otherwise strict street grid of South Philly, is dotted with boutiques, shops, cafes, restaurants and bars catering to newcomers in an old neighbourhood.<br /><br />“Old South Philly has been very accepting of ‘New South Philly’,” DeCesare said. “There’s a really nice feel here. You have hipsters, gay people [and] people from different walks of life that have been embraced by the neighbourhood.”<br /><br />In 2007, DeCesare and Kaufman opened Black N Brew, a coffee shop and café that is located in a unique corner space with a remarkable mosaic exterior. It has become a ubiquitous neighbourhood meeting place, and DeCesare and Kaufman have been very involved in outreach events, even playing host to a weekly social for LGBT seniors, the William Way Community Center’s MorningsOut excursion.<br /><br />Black N Brew serves local La Colombe coffee, refreshing smoothies, hearty breakfast and lunch plates and features plenty of vegetarian and vegan options<br /><a href="http://www.bbc.com/travel/feature/20111220-a-new-corridor-in-old-south-philadelphia/2"><br />http://www.bbc.com/travel/feature/20111220-a-new-corridor-in-old-south-philadelphia/2</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4572758989620874988-2103835216399660629?l=blacknbrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Black N Brewhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04324881746526957303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4572758989620874988.post-52361069382571205342011-11-17T08:57:00.003-05:002011-11-17T09:05:15.670-05:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-FTzk4CRVpIg/TsUTygzqQUI/AAAAAAAAAC0/Lrc7j5rhvR4/s1600/gift%2Bcard.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 247px; height: 204px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-FTzk4CRVpIg/TsUTygzqQUI/AAAAAAAAAC0/Lrc7j5rhvR4/s320/gift%2Bcard.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5675964663891378498" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;">Give your loved ones something they will use and love this year.

Instead of being chilly, just chill.... Why not have one of your business meet-ups at Black N Brew? We offer everything that a sterile boardroom doesn't. Room to set up your laptop (we offer Free Wi-Fi at the cafe) and a place to drop your hat. Settle in and get that work done in a relaxed atmosphere where you can discuss ideas and solutions over coffee (we serve La Colombe coffee) or one of our specialty drinks, or tea, and a home cooked meal! Free refills on coffee for your second cup! If you are worried about space, call us and we are happy to arrange something in advance of your visit.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4572758989620874988-3821162765261237804?l=blacknbrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Black N Brewhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04324881746526957303noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4572758989620874988.post-18535733095169607242009-02-04T06:55:00.001-05:002009-02-04T15:00:07.952-05:00Our month of February feature is the works of artist and graphic designer, Joe Castro.
