The property at 208 E. Mt. Airy Ave. is one that is surprisingly hidden, despite the presence of the now-closed Fred's Mt. Airy Motors along this main corridor. Sitting in the middle of a block surrounded by some of Mt. Airy's amazing historic architecture, what is now a surface lot

After watching the future MVP drop a 52 piece to beat the rival Boston Celtics last night, we surprisingly found ourselves having flashbacks to a younger, goofier Joel Hans Embiid.
