paradise is a squat in west phily located at 49th and Locust. if you take the blue subway & get off at 46th street you can walk to it within 5-10 mins. its 8 stories, first few are homebums & crackheads, then the higher floors & roof is squatters, travelers, chill folk. the city closes the gate a lot but its very easy to break back open and many other ways to get on the property besides the side, being as it once was a school it has a baseball feild you can easily walk through that into the building, but its very easy to be spotted going in that way being as there are bike cops that sit on the corner when it starts geting dark, they usually leave around 8 or 9 then come back around 2am to check to see if anyone is coming in or out. i wouldnt want to walk a dog through there. there is also a beer store a few blocks south that is a decent spot to spange at if you need a quick 2-3 bucks to get on the subway.
