The Wawa location on 20th and Locust in Center City Philadelphia closed for good last night, and a vigil was held to say goodbye. PW was there:
Wawa- which still has a handful of city locations and many more in the 'burbs- remains one of the top five reasons to live in Philadelphia (the other four being Chickie's and Pete's, Citizen's Bank Park, the Mummers' parade, and WXPN.) Runners-up include Tastykakes, Yuengling Lager, and Mayor Michael Nutter.
This is(was) my local office Wawa. no more. The past few days they were empty and looked like a Soviet bread line. They did give out free coffee in their last days. Wawa 2/29/08 - NEVER FORGET!
