Well, it may have taken 10 years, but Nicholas Baker did it! The Philadelphia Historical Commission has approved protection for the beautiful antique subway gates. Baker submitted the recommendation first in 2010 while pursuing his Master of City Planning degree here at the Univeristy of Pennsylvania Stuart Weitzman School of Design. The Historical Commission had put off Bakers nomination for a quite a bit of time because of concerns with legal authority to do so. We are so happy that Bakers nomination has been granted!
