Title Delaware County Historical Society collection on Lansdowne Borough Call number S27 Date [inclusive] 1919-2012 Extent 1.67 linear feet Language English Abstract Settled in the early 1700s and incorporated in 1893, the Borough of Lansdowne, Delaware County, Pennsylvania, has a rich industrial and commercial history. Located just six miles from the center of Philadelphia, the town became a haven for middle-class families beginning in the early 20th century as well as a popular design location for the area's best architects, including renowned Philadelphia architect Frank Furness. The Delaware County Historical Society collection on Lansdowne Borough, 1919-2012, consists of records and materials relating to numerous Lansdowne institutions, organizations, and events. About one third of the collection pertains to Lansdowne-Aldan High School (formerly Lansdowne High School) class reunions. - Page 3 - Delaware County Historical Society collection on Lansdowne Borough Biography/History "The area that is now known as the Borough of Lansdowne [Delaware County, Pennsylvania] was settled in the early 1700s and named after the English estate of Lord Lansdowne. Lansdowne Borough has a rich industrial and commercial history. One hundred years before it was incorporated as a separate entity from Upper Darby, the area which is now Lansdowne Borough was historically home to various industries [including textile, paper, and cotton]. "By the mid 19th century a single rail track ran through the town. Big changes followed the construction of a second track in the 1880s by the Pennsylvania Railroad. The freight line brought silk, tin work, roofing, piping and steel mill trades to the area. "In addition to its rich industrial base, the area became known for its small but elegant hotels and guesthouses including The Evergreen Lodge, Hartel's Guest House and The Windermere. The floral trade also blossomed with the well-known Pennock family, William Leonard and August Valentine Doemling operating floral businesses here. "The expanded rail accessibility also attracted real estate developers. The farmers of the largely agricultural Upper Darby were not particularly interested. Eager to take advantage of new opportunity, leaders of the local business community petitioned the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and in June of 1893 were granted permission to incorporate the Borough of Lansdowne. "A trolley line along Baltimore Pike, linking the many towns between Media and Philadelphia, was constructed at the turn of the century providing an easy commute between the city and outlying towns. "Situated just six miles from Philadelphia's City Hall, Lansdowne became a haven for middle-class families wanting to settle in eastern Delaware County. Between 1900 and 1910 residential development throughout the borough boomed. The Victorian mansions from this era still grace the town's streets and provide much of the charm that remains today. "The areas best architects, including renowned Philadelphia architect Frank Furness, teamed with builders to display some of their grandest designs in Lansdowne. Furness designed the Lansdowne train station. His thumbprint is also on the Barker Building as well as many private residences throughout the borough."

This beautiful valley was fi rst inhabited by the Lenni Lenape Indians. Founded in 1683, Concord Township was one of the original Penns Grant. The Township of Concord was so named to remember the harmonious feelings which prevailed among the early settlers. Concord Township is a Township of the second class, which means it is generally more rural and agricultural in character than a Township of the fi rst class. Toll Brothers has tried to capture the rural nature of this Township in the community design of Estates at Garnet Valley. Concord Township was laid out in a rectangular shape with Concord Road running down the center of the Township from Bethel to Thornbury. This road was laid out in 1682 and was opened to the public soon after.
