Residents of the 4200 block of Greeby St. in Tacony have once again gone all out in decorating their houses, lawns, trees and utility poles for Christmas.
Tom Schooley is in charge of making sure all or most of the 46 houses on the block are decorated. There are several Toys for Tots and Salvation Army boxes on the block.
A sign on the corner reads, “On this block of Greeby Street, residents, led by the indomitable Stabler family, have kept the holiday spirit alive. The residents of Greeby wish all who travel here a very Merry Christmas and a happy holiday season!”
Last Friday, the Rev. Michael Olivere, pastor at St. Timothy, blessed the sign. The Marine Corps Reserve’s Marquis Myers was also on hand for the festivities. Santa and Mrs. Claus handed out candy canes.
The 4200 block of Greeby is between Erdrick and Walker streets. There are photos on the Greeby Street Christmas page on Facebook. Residents welcome people to walk or ride up the street to enjoy the decorations. ••
