Project Information: Pennsylvania Department of Transportation evaluations have indicated that the bridge is structurally deficient due to major deterioration of most concrete members. In several areas, reinforcing bars are exposed and are deteriorating. In addition, the skew of the bridge and the angles of the approach road limit sight distances. Rehabilitation of the bridge has been determined unfeasible. To mitigate the adverse effect of demolition, a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) was executed among the Federal Highway Administration, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, and the Pennsylvania State Historic Preservation Officer. The MOA stipulates that the existing bridge be recorded to standards of the Historic American Engineering Record. Documentation: Richard Meyer/Senior Project Manager Douglas C.

    5. PENNYPACK PARK MASTER PLAN Fairmount Park System Natural Lands Restoration Master Plan Mainstem of Pennypack Creek. 5.A. T ASKS A SSOCIATED W ITH R ESTORATION A CTIVITIES 5.A.1. Introduction The project to prepare a natural lands restoration master plan for Pennypack Park began in October 1997. Numerous site visits were conducted in Pennypack Park with the Fairmount Park Commission (FPC) District #5 Manager and staff, community members, Natural Lands Restoration and Environmental Education Program (NLREEP) and ANSP staff. Informal meetings at the Park’s district office were held to solicit information and opinions, and ANSP participated in the NLREEP Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) meetings in March and October 1998. These meetings were used to solicit ideas and develop contacts with other environmental scientists and land managers. A meeting was also held with ANSP, NLREEP and FPC engineering staff to discuss completed and planned projects in, or affecting, the natural lands in Pennypack Park. A variety of informal contacts, such as speaking at meetings of Friends groups and other clubs and discussions during field visits provided additional input. ANSP, NLREEP and the Philadelphia Water Department (PWD) set up a program of quarterly meetings to discuss various issues of joint interest. These meetings are valuable in obtaining information useful in planning restoration and in developing concepts for cooperative programs. As a result of these meetings, PWD staff reviewed the list of priority stream restoration sites proposed for the Pennypack Park. 5.A.2. Community Meetings As part of the planning process, NLREEP held two community meetings and conducted a community mapping initiative to solicit citizen attitudes and information on park use and conditions.

  • Pennypack Park
    Pennypack Park Pennypack Park originated in 1910 when the need to provide additional public open space was perceived. By 1916 a significant proportion of the 1,750 acre park was in city ownership. Today the park supports significant areas of natural habitat intermixed with conventional parklands, playgrounds, and athletic fields. Pennypack Creek has tidal flow up to the Frankford Avenue Bridge where a natural falls has slowed erosion of the river. These falls were the impetus for early development in the area as they acted as a natural dam for mills to draw water from. The first mill built on Pennypack Creek was constructed in 1687 with the creek supporting 30 mills by 1800. These mills grew in size and their affect on the creek continued to increase with the advancements of the industrial revolution. Further impacts on the park were generally limited until Species of Concern documented after World War II when the upper watershed of at Pennypack on the Delaware Park Osprey Pandion haliaetus Bird the area was developed.

(j-',^yA &V■■ Philadelphia County Pennsylvania PHOTOGRAPHS WRITTEN HISTORICAL AND DESCRIPTIVE DATA HISTORIC AMERICAN ENGINEERING RECORD National Park Service 1849 C Street, NW Washington, DC 20240 HISTORIC AMERICAN ENGINEERING RECORD HENRY AVENUE BRIDGE (Wissahickon Memorial Bridge) HAERNo.PA-464 Location: Spanning Wissahickon Creek and Lincoln Dr. at Henry Ave. (State Rt. 4001), Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania. USGS Quadrangle: Germantown, Pennsylvania (7.5-minute series, 1983). UTM Coordinates: 18/483250/4430240 Dates of Construction: 1930-32. Designer: Ralph Modjeski and Clement E. Chase, engineers; George S. Webster, consulting engineer; Paul P. Cret, consulting architect. Contractor: Francis A. Canuso and Son. Present Owner: Pennsylvania Department of Transportation. Present Use: Vehicular bridge. Significance: This single-span, two-ribbed reinforced concrete arch bridge soars high over the Wissahickon Creek in Philadelphia's Fairmount Park. It is a late example of a masonry-clad reinforced concrete arch bridge — a common design for concrete bridges in parks and cities in the early twentieth century. The visually dramatic bridge features a 288'-0" main span with open-spandrel arches, rusticated piers, and unusual architectural details. Plans provided yet-unused space for a transit line running through the bridge. The bridge's design was supervised by prolific engineer Ralph Modjeski, whose firm retained well-known Philadelphia architect Paul Cret as an architectural consultant. The Henry Avenue Bridge was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1988. Historian: J. Philip Gruen, August 1997.
