Exciting news! Maplewood Mall’s brand-new, state-of-the-art BigBelly high capacity trash can units have arrived and are ready to tackle our waste management needs. Positioned strategically at both ends of the mall – within the Germantown Ave/Armat plaza and curbside at Greene St/Armat – these units combine functionality with a touch of artistic flair to the mall’s surroundings.
Thanks to the creative brilliance of Oluwafemi (@olwfm), these trash can units transcend mere utility and transform into eye-catching pieces of urban art.
A Collaborative Effort
Thanks to the Philadelphia Department of Commerce and the Streets Department for providing the necessary resources to make this addition a reality. Their support underscores the importance of community collaboration in building a more sustainable and visually appealing urban environment.
Further kudos are due to the dedicated members of Germantown United’s corridor cleaning and beautification dream team, who provide services in the Central Germantown Commercial Corridor: Ready, Willing & Able, Depaul USA Philadelphia, Candice Price Garden Design, and Friends of Germantown NW.
Collectively, these efforts are paving the way for a cleaner, more beautiful Germantown.
