Philadelphia is part of the 'Real World' again By Michael Klein
A statement from the Mayor's Office heralding the news made it clear that the accord was struck between producers and the city, and not between producers and unions, which had picketed an Old City building that was being renovated by nonunion workers to house the show.
Bunim/Murray Productions has not hired union workers in 13 Real World cities since 1992.
U.S. Rep. Robert Brady (D., Pa.) said that union subcontractors, including carpenters and electricians, would help finish the show's living space in the former Seamen's Church Institute at Third and Arch Streets. Teamsters also would get work, Brady said.------------------------------------------- posted 6:53 AM :: reference link ::
