From its establishment in 1919 through today, this institution has set the standard for health, education, and rehabilitation professionals, advancing their scope of practice and maintaining and continually expanding its focus on academics, while acquiring a distinguished record of firsts, particularly in optometry.

This corridor is now home to several where residents and visitors are excited to visit, shop, and special events throughout the year, and the streetscape support local businesses. enhancements have helped attract at least ten new businesses to Glenside. This has not only brought new patrons and an increase in commercial activity to this corridor but has also brought new jobs to the area. These changes have also helped to leverage the operation of a seasonal farmers’ market, located at the train station parking lot off of Easton Road. The 400+ shoppers that show up on Saturdays help support this corridor, and the recently formed Downtown Glenside Community Partnership has been organizing special weekend events to draw these shoppers into the heart of downtown Glenside. Design The improvements to the Glenside Commercial District began with Wesley Plaza. It was envisioned that this area, in the heart of Glenside, would be transformed into the perfect venue to showcase the business district—and it was. Paver blocks replaced the blacktop and cement, and sidewalks were widened to include decorative benches, street trees, illuminated bollards, ornamental pedestrian- scaled street lamps with flower baskets, and new street furniture.
