The first pic looks like the Waterworks? This is in my neighborhood. I would try to get rid of the garbage bags. The lighting is pleasant.
If you want to keep the second picture I would crop out the top part - it appears to be part of a car that you are in. City Hall is a tad dark. Since the grime has been cleaned off, the building is very white.
If you come again and want to get a shot of City Hall, South Broad Street has a median that has enough room to set up a tripod.

Thanks. I will cut out the top part of the second one. I am right now, in King of Prussia, but will be leaving for California by the end of the month. I intend to come to the city again some time this week. Thanks for the tip about the median. Will surely chcek it out.

I second that Jeremy. You don't come to Philly and not properly inform the nice Philly folks on DPC. I feel forced to leave 1's with no comments.
Humor aside, I agree with some of the other comments. The trash bag is a bit distracting, but there are some nice elements in the picture. The other shot from the car could have been composed better, especially without the windshield in the photo.
It's not uncommon for people in Philly to stop their car in the middle of the street and hold up traffic, so next time you're in town, feel free to step out of the car if you see a nice shot. If anyone driving behind you beeps it's because they respect photographers so much.
