The formation, growth, maintenance and enjoyment of Fairmount Park has produced one of the longest- standing examples of city and citizen cooperation. This collection contains a multitude of images of the Fairmount Park system created between 1855 and 2000 in a variety of formats. Preferred Citation note [Description and date of item], FP.2010.002, Photographic Prints Collection, Fairmount Park Historic Resource Archives. - Page 3 - Photographic Prints Collection FP.2010.002 Historical note Philadelphia's yellow fever epidemics of the 1790s spurred City Councils to seek a system to provide safe drinking water to the citizens of the city. In 1801, water works were built on the original Center Square, current site of City Hall. In 1815 the Center Square water works were replaced by the Fairmount Water Works and its reservoir atop Faire Mount (the current site of the Philadelphia Museum of Art). Throughout the early 1800s industrial pollution threatened the water quality and numerous attempts, through legislation and acquisition of riverfront properties, successfully safeguarded the water supply. The Consolidation Act of 1854 granted the newly-enlarged Philadelphia City and County the power to acquire areas within the city as open public space. Fairmount Park was officially founded in 1855 when the Lemon Hill estate was dedicated as a public park and renamed Fairmount Park. Support came from 2,400 citizens who signed a petition urging the purchase of Lemon Hill. In another effort to protect Philadelphia's water supply private citizens raised funds to purchase the Sedgley Estate in 1856. The group raised $60,000 of the $125,000 purchase price. The city contributed the balance and the property was deeded to the City. This Estate was the second significant piece of land purchased and prohibited its being developed. To escape the city's epidemics and summer heat, villas sprung up on the banks of the Schuylkill River. By the end of the 18th century the River was lined with villas, several of which can still be seen in Fairmount Park today. As extensive acreage surrounded these villas, they posed little threat to the River's water quality. City growth, the damming of the Schuylkill River, and the growth of suburban areas outside Philadelphia slowly ended the Villa Period. Unlike New York City's Central Park with its man-made landscapes, Fairmount Park evolved through the absorption of older estates, their tree groves and open meadowland without significant alterations. The historic houses of Fairmount Park are an important component of the Park. Many of the houses - Lemon Hill, Laurel Hill, Ormiston, Sweetbriar, Woodford, Strawberry Hill - are the original estate buildings appropriated by the Commission in the 1860s and 1870s. Others, like Cedar Grove and Letitia Street House, were moved into the Park to ensure their preservation. Cedar Grove, an eighteenth century country house, once stood isolated in Frankford. The two-and-a-half story, gambrel-roofed house was moved to its present location in the West Park in 1926 as a gift from Lydia T. Morris, one of the founders of the Morris Arboretum. Letitia Street House was originally built around 1715 on Letitia Street, an alley between Front and Second Streets in Old City. The house relocated to its current site in 1883. - Page 4 - Photographic Prints Collection FP.2010.002 Scope and Contents note This collection contains a multitude of images of the Fairmount Park system created between 1855 and 2012 in a variety of formats. The collection is divided into ten series by individual watershed parks, neighborhood parks, general features and activities, by the Edward and William Wharton Smith Collection, and then by formatting as either a transparency or digital file. The “Photographic prints” collection consists of primarily of 8 x 10 prints of various park features, such as historic houses, guard boxes, landscape, construction and demolition, although sizes and content does vary widely throughout. This collection is a combination of photos which are official documents of the Fairmount Park Commission, and materials related to the park which have been accessioned as a result of their informational value. Because of the breadth of its subject matter, this series has a high value to researchers interested in many aspects of Philadelphia history.

  • JAMES LOGAN the Political Career of a Colonial Scholar
    JAMES LOGAN The Political Career of a Colonial Scholar By E. GORDON ALDERFER* A CROSS Sixth Street facing the shaded lawn of Independence Square in Philadelphia, on the plot now hidden by the pomp- ous facade of The Curtis Publishing Company, once stood a curious little building that could with some justice lay claim to being the birthplace of the classic spirit of early America. Just as the State House across the way symbolizes the birth of independ- ence and revolutionary idealism, the first public home of the Loganian Library could represent (were it still standing) the balanced, serene, inquiring type of mind so largely responsible for nurturing the civilization of the colonies. The Loganian, the first free public library in America outside of Boston and by some odds the greatest collection for public use in the colonial era, was the creation of James Logan, occasionally reputed to have been the most learned man in the colonies during the first half of the eighteenth century. Logan journeyed to Amer- ica with William Penn in 1699 as Penn's secretary, and became in effect the resident head of the province. Two years later, when Penn left his province never to return, Logan was commissioned Secretary of the Province and Commissioner of Property. He was soon installed as Clerk of the Provincial Council and became its most influential member in spite of his youthfulness. Even- tually, in 1731, Logan became Chief Justice of Pennsylvania, and, five years later, as President of the Provincial Council, he assumed *Dr. E.

  • The First Design for Fairmount Park
    The First Design for Fairmount Park AIRMOUNT PARK IN PHILADELPHIA is one of the great urban parks of America, its importance in landscape history exceeded only by FNew York’s Central Park. Its name derives from the “Faire Mount” shown on William Penn’s plan of 1682, where the Philadelphia Museum of Art now perches, and where the gridded Quaker city suddenly gives way to an undulating scenery of river and park. Measuring over 3,900 acres, it is one of the world’s largest municipal parks. Nonetheless, for all its national importance, the origin of the park, its philosophical founda- tions, and its authorship have been misunderstood in the literature.1 About the principal dates there is no dispute: in 1812–15 a municipal waterworks was built on the banks of the Schuylkill, the site of which soon became a popular resort location and a subject of picturesque paintings; in 1843 the city began to acquire tracts of land along the river to safeguard the water supply; in 1859 the city held a competition for the design of a picturesque park; finally, in 1867, the Fairmount Park Commission was established to oversee a much larger park, whose layout was eventually entrusted to the German landscape architect Hermann J. Schwarzmann. This is the version rehearsed in all modern accounts of the park. All texts agree that 1867 marks the origin of the park, in conception and execution. They depict the pre–Civil War events as abortive and inconclusive; in particular, they dismiss the 1859 competition. According to George B. Tatum, writing in 1961, a series of “plans were prepared,” I am indebted to five generous colleagues who read this manuscript and contributed suggestions: Therese O’Malley of CASVA; Sheafe Satterthwaite and E.

  • Philadelphia and the Southern Elite: Class, Kinship, and Culture in Antebellum America
    PHILADELPHIA AND THE SOUTHERN ELITE: CLASS, KINSHIP, AND CULTURE IN ANTEBELLUM AMERICA BY DANIEL KILBRIDE A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 1997 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS In seeing this dissertation to completion I have accumulated a host of debts and obligation it is now my privilege to acknowledge. In Philadelphia I must thank the staff of the American Philosophical Society library for patiently walking out box after box of Society archives and miscellaneous manuscripts. In particular I must thank Beth Carroll- Horrocks and Rita Dockery in the manuscript room. Roy Goodman in the Library’s reference room provided invaluable assistance in tracking down secondary material and biographical information. Roy is also a matchless authority on college football nicknames. From the Society’s historian, Whitfield Bell, Jr., I received encouragement, suggestions, and great leads. At the Library Company of Philadelphia, Jim Green and Phil Lapansky deserve special thanks for the suggestions and support. Most of the research for this study took place in southern archives where the region’s traditions of hospitality still live on. The staff of the Mississippi Department of Archives and History provided cheerful assistance in my first stages of manuscript research. The staffs of the Filson Club Historical Library in Louisville and the Special Collections room at the Medical College of Virginia in Richmond were also accommodating. Special thanks go out to the men and women at the three repositories at which the bulk of my research was conducted: the Special Collections Library at Duke University, the Southern Historical Collection of the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, and the Virginia Historical Society.
