Mellon Independence Center

This building takes up the whole street on Market between 7th & 8th Sts. Considering other places, this spot is rather on the clean side. Virtually everyone Crowd is for a quick or mutual . A row of 5 or 6 stalls face about the same number of urinals. Very easy to watch or 'lurk' in the stalls until someone excites you. Enough time to get yourself together if anyone enters. And yes, I've noticed many, even encounted, a number of married men who are looking for play toys in their mouth or hands. No holes, but I have seen some guys get blown underneath the stalls. I wouldn't try that if I were you. The patrol is only footsteps away.

Best time
Weekdays between 12 and 3. Rush hour may have some action.
Crowd
All types, young, old, hot, married! All races involved.
Watch out
Caution: Like I said, everyone Crowd knows exactly what goes on.

The guide

Where exactly

On foot if in Center City. Otherwise a bus or subway (the El) to 8th & Market Streets will get you at the front door. Cross street: 7th Street

Cruisiest spot: Without a doubt, the men's room on lower level! Has always had action since they opened in '88. However, the street level room can be fierce as well.

When to go

Weekdays between 12 and 3. Rush hour may have some action.

Etiquette

Either 1)Take a and let the guys at the s amuse you and get off or; 2) take a next to someone who appeals to you and whip it out.

Safety

Caution: Like I said, everyone Crowd knows exactly what goes on. Consequently, the rooms are patroled on a consistent basis...I'd say every 15 - 20 mins during peak afternoon hours. Upon entering, the 'guards' will usually make noises and play on their walkie-talkies, but don't be fooled, as soon as they leave, the action returns. Also, the cleaning staff may occasionally bust the mood. So be alert! You can always go to the men's room on the other level.
