Small business is the backbone of our city’s economy. That’s why I take it seriously when people ask us for help with the permits they need to launch. No other law firm knows small business like Anastasio Law. Phillyzoning.com

Yes!
The point of an abatement is not to hand out a stack of cash, it is about making the math work. Projects that can’t otherwise secure funding become feasible. Plots that either produce no revenue or in some cases act as a liability, costing the city maintenance, become productive.

❤️ This is about love. Not just about land use. Special exceptions for Pops Bun Shop & Cecily Tyson Musical Theatre, compliance for Ralph’s, a conveyance for Cucina Maria; a zoning variance for Kampar. Because when it comes to love, there’s nothing I won’t do.❤️ #phillyzoning

Rev Jesse Jackson was an important voice for equality and a powerful agent for change during a critical time in our history. May he rest in peace and may his memory be a blessing to his family and to his countrymen.

It’s no big deal if you watch a superbowl half time show and don’t understand the lyrics. Ya go to the opera and the entire performance is in either Italian or German, right? Oh wait…the yahoos complaining about Bad Bunny wouldn’t know where to find an opera. 😆

My 2026 wish for you: Build a life YOU are proud of. Stand strong in your own company. Do YOU. Let others catch up…or wave goodbye & good luck w/grace. Seek & find real connections with people, nature & other living creatures….but let those be a bonus—not a matter of survival
