Biography/History
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.

Scope and Contents
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.
