UPDATE FEBRUARY 14, 2022: Since I wrote the above post over seven years ago, not only has Tony Luke's come and gone, but also local cheesesteaker Vince's, in the same spot, has come and gone--- not to mention Pawlowski himself. However, Zandy's is still on St. John Street, serving up its famous cheesesteaks, without the paper's promotion or any NIZ subsidized rent. Until last week the Morning Call has stayed faithful to NIZ, with no questions asked. However, lo and behold they revealed that their right to know inquiry about NIZ taxes was stymied by Pat Browne's latest NIZ amendment. On the surface it might appear that the paper is finally doing what it should have been doing for the last decade. However, having a smudge of cynicism, I see another possible motive. The Morning Call editors have embraced Mark Pinsley and his political ambitions. Bashing Browne now serves the paper well with that agenda.
