Tookany Creek Watershed Management Plan September 2003 Tookany Creek Watershed Management Plan Goals v Tookany Creek Watershed Management Plan Goals (These are the goals that were developed for the PA DCNR grant application and later presented at the September 2000 public meeting.) Improve coordination of river-related activities and ordinances. Improve public education to promote stewardship of river resources. Improve environmental and land conservation efforts by preserving open space, sensitive environmental areas and habitats by promoting concepts such as riparian buffer preservation and restoration, reforestation, floodplain preservation, water quality, streambank maintenance, and improve water quality by reducing non- point source pollution. Design non-engineering best management practices and techniques aimed at reducing flooding and improving soil and sedimentation controls. Design methods for improved communication among local, county, state, and federal governments.

TOOKANY CREEK WATERSHED MANAGEMENT PLAN SEPTEMBER 2003 xii Executive Summary Executive Summary The Tookany Creek Watershed Management Plan has been developed to be a road map for municipalities, landowners, conservation groups, and citizens interested in taking positive steps to improve the long-term health of the Tookany Creek. The Tookany Creek Watershed Management Plan is the result of a partnership between state, regional and local organizations. Cheltenham Township, with most of the land in the watershed within its municipal boundaries, had a strong interest in preserving the Tookany Creek watershed resources. The other communities directly involved in the plan are Abington Township, Jenkintown Borough and Rockledge Borough. The municipal partners all agreed on the need for a watershed conservation plan as an important step to address the severe flooding, streambank degradation, and poor water quality, all of which are the unfortunate results of suburban development. Because of the commitment of citizens and government leaders in these communities, a watershed management plan will aid in protecting the vital resources of the Tookany Creek and the entire Tookany/Tacony-Frankford watershed. The Tookany Creek Watershed Management Plan includes the headwater tributaries of the Tookany Creek in the four lower Montgomery County municipalities of Abington and Cheltenham Townships, and Jenkintown and Rockledge Boroughs. The six main tributaries in the headwaters of the study area are Baeder Creek, Jenkintown Creek, an unnamed Tributary, Mill Run, Rock Creek and the main stem of the Tookany Creek. Their total length is 21.22 linear miles. Most of the open land in these municipalities is along the creeks and in municipal holdings. The Tookany Creek name changes to the "Tacony Creek" when it enters into the city of Philadelphia. A watershed management plan is currently under development in this lower portion of the watershed under the auspices of the Philadelphia Water Department. The purpose of developing a watershed management plan is to analyze the significant natural, recreational and cultural resources within the watershed. The Tookany Creek Watershed Management Plan recommends a long-term course of action to protect the resources of the Tookany/Tacony-Frankford Creek. The plan sought input from the participating municipalities through a steering committee and through a public meeting in September 2000. The first part of this plan documents conditions within the study area. Existing resources data was gathered and reviewed by the consultants with input from the steering committee to understand the greater trends occurring in the study area. It is also important to note that a study of this magnitude has never been undertaken, therefore, this will be a baseline document for all future studies. The inventoried information includes: natural resources of topography, geology, vegetation, soils, land uses, wildlife, water resources, wetlands, and threatened and endangered species; recreation, cultural and the community background. A visual assessment was conducted on the major creeks in each municipality, documenting the existing conditions with photos and text. Analysis of the resource data and visual assessments led the consultants and steering committee to identify assets to be preserved, and issues to be addressed. The primary issues of concern are stormwater and flood management, restoration and management of the riparian areas, TOOKANY CREEK WATERSHED MANAGEMENT PLAN SEPTEMBER 2003 Executive Summary xiii implementation of best management practices (BMPs), community education and improving and increasing preservation ordinances. The final section of the Tookany Creek Watershed Management Plan includes the recommended goals and management options. A public meeting was held in May 2003 to present and discuss these goals. This plan will provide the four municipalities with an opportunity to build a strong inter-municipal relationship and to protect the upper portion of the watershed as well as the whole Tookany/Tacony-Frankford watershed for future generations to enjoy. Coordinating municipal plans and programs will provide strong, ongoing stewardship for this regional effort. The Tookany Creek Watershed Management Plan was developed with the financial support of the Commonwealth's Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) "Rivers Conservation Program" and Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP) Coastal Zone Management Program and its recommendations are eligible for implementation funding from the DCNR.

    African Americans Fight for the Union the Civil War Was a Turning Point In

    [Type text] African Americans Fight for the Union The Civil War was a turning point in black history for many reasons. After Lincoln’s issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation, free blacks saw their chance to fight for their country. By doing so, African Americans hoped to show their worthiness to be treated as equal citizens. However, African Americans were not exactly welcomed into the Union military with open arms. While slavery was banned in many Northern states, the border states that were fighting for the Union still allowed slavery. In addition, racist sentiments were strong in both the North and the South and many whites were not keen on training African American soldiers. In 1863, President Abraham Lincoln authorized the recruitment of African Americans into the Union army and Camp William Penn was built as a training facility for black troops. Explore the significance of Camp William Penn as a turning point in African American history in the collections of the Historical Society.

ELk'.'.PA,I HISTORIC AMERICAN BUILDINGS SURVEY $- LYNNEWOOD HALL HABS No. PA-6146 Location: 920 Spring Avenue, Elkins Park, Montgomery Co., Pennsylvania. Significance: Lynnewood Hall, designed by famed Philadelphia architect Horace Trumbauer in 1898, survives as one of the finest country houses in the Philadelphia area. The 110-room mansion was built for street-car magnate P.A.B. Widener to house his growing family and art collection which would later become internationally renowned. 1 The vast scale and lavish interiors exemplify the remnants of an age when Philadelphia's self-made millionaire industrialists flourished and built their mansions in Cheltenham, apart from the Main Line's old society. Description: Lynnewood Hall is a two-story, seventeen-bay Classical Revival mansion that overlooks a terraced lawn to the south. The house is constructed of limestone and is raised one­ half story on a stone base that forms a terrace around the perimeter of the building. The mansion is a "T" plan with the front facade forming the cross arm of the "T". Enclosed semi­ circular loggias extend from the east and west ends of the cross arm and a three-story wing forms the leg of the 'T' to the north. The most imposing exterior feature is the full-height, five-bay Corinthian portico with a stone staircase and a monumental pediment.
