  • 900-04 N 63Rd St, Overbrook Gardens Apartments OVERVIEW
    COMMENT ON NATIONAL REGISTER NOMINATION ADDRESS: 900-04 N 63rd St, Overbrook Gardens Apartments OVERVIEW: The Pennsylvania Historical & Museum Commission (PHMC) has requested comments from the Philadelphia Historical Commission on the National Register nomination of 900-04 N 63rd Street, located in the Overbrook neighborhood of West Philadelphia and historically known as the Overbrook Garden Apartments. PHMC is charged with implementing federal historic preservation regulations in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, including overseeing the National Register of Historic Places in the state. PHMC reviews all such nominations before forwarding them to the National Park Service for action. As part of the process, PHMC must solicit comments on every National Register nomination from the appropriate local government. The Philadelphia Historical Commission speaks on behalf of the City of Philadelphia in historic preservation matters including the review of National Register nominations. Under federal regulation, the local government not only must provide comments, but must also provide a forum for public comment on nominations. Such a forum is provided during the Philadelphia Historical Commission’s meetings. According to the nomination, Overbrook Garden Apartments is significant in the Area of Community Planning and Development, as a prime example of the large, efficiency apartment building that became a highly desirable form of housing in West Philadelphia during the 1920s. The building is also significant in the Area of Architecture as an important example of the Spanish Colonial Revival style in Philadelphia and representative of a courtyard-type apartment building, a building form that became prevalent in West Philadelphia during the 1920s. The Period of Significance begins in 1928 when construction completed, and ends in 1930 when construction in West Philadelphia slowed due to Great Depression and interest in the Spanish Colonial Revival style waned.

  • Natural Resources Profile
    BBaacckkggrroouunndd SStttuuddyy ##66 Natural Resources Profile The Natural Resources Profile is designed to identify and analyze the vast assortment of natural resources that are found within or have an influence on Lebanon County. These resources and features include the physical geography; topography; soils; geologic formations and physiographic provinces; water resources; wellhead protection; woodlands; and wildlife and their value to economic pursuits, such as agriculture and forestry, and to the county’s overall environmental quality. The purpose of the profile is to help local, regional, and state government officials and decision-makers, developers, and citizens make more informed planning decisions. Sensitive environmental resources, threats to resource existence and function, development impacts, and types of protection techniques are of specific interest, as they aid in the identification of natural resources in need of remediation, features that impose development constraints, areas to be preserved, and places that are well-suited for development. Physical Geography Lebanon County is located in the Lebanon Valley between South Mountain, which rises to an elevation of 800 to 1,000 feet, and the Blue Mountain Chain to the north, which reaches peaks of 1,300 to 1,500 feet. The Lebanon Valley is divided into several smaller valleys by lines of hills parallel to the ensconcing mountains. The valley lies on the northern edge of the Southeast Piedmont Climatological Division which also includes Dauphin, Berks, Lancaster, Chester, Bucks, Montgomery, Delaware, and Philadelphia Counties and is more or less a transition zone from the piedmont region to the East Central Mountain and Middle Susquehanna Climatic Divisions.1 Climate The climate of Lebanon County is best described as humid continental.

Preface This cultural history of Narberth was written by Victoria Donohoe, a lifelong resident of Narberth. It was written over a forty-year period from about 1980 until her death in 2018. Victoria did not complete the book but left it in manuscript form in her house. Neighbor and friend Nancy Greene, who had helped type chapters for Victoria in the last years of her life, was able to secure Victoria's writings (and supporting documentation) when Victoria was moved into a retirement home. Victoria died before the book could be completed but Nancy has typed and organized the material as closely as possible to the way she believes Victoria would have wanted it.
