These Old Houses

March 11, 2017 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

PROGRAM These Old Houses – Upper Merion’s Historic Homes

SPEAKER Michael Morrison

Join us for a very special interactive program where we will examine “The King of Prussia Story”,  documenting many of the historic structures in the area that existed at that time.  First published in 1956, and edited in 1959, it tells of the need for historic preservation in the face of looming development.

We will also introduce two new programs that the society is introducing for 2017.  The register of historic places in Upper Merion is an interactive map  that can be accessed through our website, showing various buildings and sites of importance in the area.  The Upper Merion Streets project will document the origins of street names in the township, and we can add to the list as we evolve.

Where:  Christ Church Old Swedes Hall,  740 River Road, Swedesburg PA 19405  (Directions)

Meetings are free and open to the public.
