A Note From Carl Dranoff<br />

The fourth annual Taste of <strong>Ardmore</strong><br />

Food and Fashion Event.<br />

After five years of planning, the redevelopment of the Cricket Lot is officially<br />

moving forward. The new mixed-use project, set to be developed by Dranoff<br />

Properties, will transform <strong>Ardmore</strong> by creating a new hub of local living and<br />

activity. Aimed at bringing new residents, new retail and new businesses to<br />

Lower Merion Township, this revitalization project is a shining example of<br />

Dranoff ’s ongoing commitment to building and enhancing local communities.<br />

In further support of this new vision for <strong>Ardmore</strong>, Dranoff Properties helped<br />

to secure $12 million in state funding while itself investing an additional<br />

$44 million in this exciting project.<br />

Now in the design phase, the project will include 121 premier rental<br />

apartments, about 9,500 square feet of new storefront retail space on Cricket<br />

Avenue and a public parking garage. In the tradition of Dranoff Properties,<br />

the facade of the building will mirror the elegance and historic beauty of the<br />

<strong>Main</strong> <strong>Line</strong>. There are three versions of the public parking garage, which township<br />

officials are considering. Each plan provides a different number of spaces.<br />

Dranoff Properties’ construction of Cricket Lot will add an estimated 900 jobs<br />

and $37 million in earnings to the region over the multi-year construction period.<br />

Upon completion of this exceptional new space, <strong>Ardmore</strong> is projected to see an<br />

estimated 80 new retail jobs and $2 million in annual earnings. There will also be<br />

substantial property taxes generated annually.<br />

This transit-oriented development project will transform a vacant parking<br />

lot into a vibrant, walkable community centered on convenient access to the<br />

<strong>Ardmore</strong> train station. By maximizing access to public transport and improving<br />

walkability, the project will greatly reduce the need for driving. Dranoff<br />

Properties’ vision is the catalyst for putting more feet on the street, creating new<br />

jobs and helping to revitalize an important part of Lower Merion Township.<br />

Take a Stroll Through Our Town ...<br />

The <strong>Ardmore</strong> commercial district has played a pivotal role in the economy of Lower Merion<br />

Township since its development in the early 19th century. In 1811, Dr. James Anderson called the area<br />

“Athensville.” The name was changed in 1873 to <strong>Ardmore</strong>, a Gaelic term signifying “high grounds or<br />

hills.” The various architectural styles in the downtown area represent <strong>Ardmore</strong>’s organic growth and<br />

development through the decades, a trend that continues today. Many business owners have been in<br />

town for years and love to share the history of their buildings with visitors. Most would be glad to have<br />

you stop in and ask questions. Churches may be open for viewing (and resting). But please respect<br />

the privacy of our residents.<br />

In addition to our historic architecture, <strong>Ardmore</strong> has 44 restaurants and more than 200 businesses.<br />

Copies of the <strong>Ardmore</strong> Dining Guide, Business Directory and Guide to Antiques and Resale Shops are<br />

available at the <strong>Ardmore</strong> Initiative office. Special thanks to Lower Merion Township, Jerry Francis<br />

and the Lower Merion Historical Society, Jean Wolf of Wolf Historic Preservation, and Tom Hayden<br />

of the Merion Fire Co. of <strong>Ardmore</strong>.<br />

West Lancaster Avenue<br />

(South Side)<br />

6 W. Lancaster Ave. was the former <strong>Ardmore</strong><br />

National Bank, which opened in 1925. Originally,<br />

it had a symmetrical, neo-classical façade.<br />

The lower level has been altered over the years<br />

for commercial use. It’s currently the home<br />

of Swain Tours.<br />

8-10 W. Lancaster Ave. is an early 20th-century<br />

Art Deco theater constructed between 1913<br />

and1919. The movie-house portion—known as<br />

the Palace Theatre—was added later, lasting<br />

only until Woolworth’s arrived in 1922.<br />

It currently houses PartyLand.<br />

14-28 W. Lancaster Ave. is known as “Colonial<br />

Row” because of its rooflines. Built between<br />

1900 and 1908, this block symbolizes the history<br />

of the downtown <strong>Ardmore</strong> district.<br />

30-38 W. Lancaster Ave., built between 1925<br />

and 1926, was home to the <strong>Ardmore</strong> Theatre.<br />

Note the concrete parapet inscribed with<br />

“<strong>Ardmore</strong>,” the urns, and the sunburst window.<br />

The building has been a historical and social<br />

landmark since its erection.<br />

42 W. Lancaster Ave. is an excellent example of<br />

an early-20th-century commercial building—<br />

one that retains its original appearance. The<br />

Bell Telephone Company constructed this<br />

building circa 1908 as a telephone exchange.<br />

<strong>Ardmore</strong> Avenue<br />

Built in 1917, <strong>Ardmore</strong>’s Masonic Lodge is at<br />

the corner of <strong>Ardmore</strong> and Athens avenues.<br />

Across the street is the <strong>Ardmore</strong> Post Office.<br />

The <strong>Ardmore</strong> House, subsidized apartments<br />

for seniors, now stands on the site of the old<br />

<strong>Ardmore</strong> Avenue School.<br />

St. Mary’s Episcopal Church—located at 36<br />

<strong>Ardmore</strong> Ave., across from the post office—was<br />

built by Furness & Evans in 1887. It contains<br />

three Tiffany Studio windows.<br />

West Lancaster Avenue<br />

(North Side)<br />

Built in 1928, 49-63 W. Lancaster Ave. is an<br />

excellent example of Art Deco design. Note<br />

the colorful pattern repeated along the trim.<br />

21-27 W. Lancaster Ave., a row of four brick<br />

structures with peaked windows and steep<br />

gables, was built as a single block in a Tudor<br />

Revival Style in 1908. It became known as<br />

the Henry Harrison block. The Harrisons<br />

were among the oldest and most prominent<br />

merchant families in <strong>Ardmore</strong>. The property<br />

is now the Junior League of Philadelphia’s<br />

headquarters and thrift store.<br />

Built about 1860 as a residence, 9-13 W.<br />

Lancaster Ave. is one of the oldest structures in<br />

<strong>Ardmore</strong>. A first-floor storefront was added to<br />

the front of the house, perhaps in the 1920s.<br />

Circa-1920 1-3 W. Lancaster Ave. is a tasteful<br />

example of commercial architecture.<br />

East Lancaster Avenue<br />

Located in the heart of the downtown business<br />

district, 7 E. Lancaster Ave. is a fine example<br />

of a Classical Revival bank. Built between<br />

1923 and 1925, the Merion Title and Trust<br />

Company was once <strong>Ardmore</strong>’s principal<br />

financial institution. Note the four pilasters in<br />

the front and the unique sundial on the right<br />

side. Home to Primavera Pizza Kitchen since<br />

the early 1990s, the bank was dedicated to those<br />

who fought in World War I. The downstairs<br />

vault is available for private functions.<br />

Just inside the entrance of 16 E. Lancaster Ave.<br />

(Plaza 16) is an interesting inner courtyard with<br />

a retractable roof. The atrium building is now<br />

architectural and design offices.<br />

Now Hunan Restaurant, 47 E. Lancaster Ave.<br />

was once the Lower Merion Federal Savings and<br />

Loan. A plaque still bears the inscription.<br />

Cricket and Station avenues<br />

Cricket Avenue contains a nice mix of 1920s<br />

commercial buildings. 47-55 Cricket are some<br />

of the earlier residences, built circa 1881-1895.<br />

13 E. Lancaster Ave./9-11 Station Ave. was once a<br />

corner apartment building. Now home to Radio<br />

Shack, it features recessed window areas<br />

and tripartite windows dating to 1913-1919.<br />

Rittenhouse Place<br />

Rittenhouse Place was laid out by Harry J.<br />

Rittenhouse in 1926, when a building permit was<br />

issued for construction of a “business building<br />

and two family dwellings.”<br />

52-56 E. Lancaster Ave. originally had a twin<br />

building to the west (demolished in the 1960s<br />

to make room for what is now a bank). The pair<br />

undoubtedly created an elegant entryway to the<br />

generous new boulevard. Both this building and<br />

10-18 Rittenhouse Place—which feature French<br />

doors and iron balustrades—are admired for<br />

their 20th-century Spanish eclecticism.<br />

15 Rittenhouse Place was constructed in 1940<br />

and is a fine example of mid-20th-century<br />

commercial design.<br />

49-51 Rittenhouse Place were the first buildings<br />

built on the plot in 1927-1928. 51 Rittenhouse<br />

Place originally housed the <strong>Main</strong> <strong>Line</strong> Chronicle.<br />

Residential highlights<br />

Built in 1890, 101 Linwood Ave. is a Princess<br />

Anne Victorian. Nearby 105 Linwood Ave.<br />

is a Horace Trumbauer design from about 1900.<br />

44 Linwood Ave. (adjacent to the new Linwood<br />

Park) was constructed in 1910 for Joseph S.<br />

Pearce. Known at the time as Woodlynne, the<br />

large Tudor Revival home and its carriage house<br />

were recently restored by the new owners.<br />

Other highlights<br />

North America’s oldest skating club, the<br />

Philadelphia Skating Club and Humane Society,<br />

is located in <strong>Ardmore</strong> on Holland Avenue,<br />

two blocks west of <strong>Ardmore</strong> Avenue.<br />

(From left) 14-28 W. Lancaster Ave., the Palace Theatre, 8-10 W. Lancaster Ave.<br />

Located at St. Paul’s Road and Athens Avenue,<br />

First Baptist Church was built in 1924.<br />

One of three African-American churches<br />

in <strong>Ardmore</strong>, Zion Baptist Church was<br />

established in 1894 and has a unique history.<br />

The congregation moved an existing building<br />

from Lancaster Avenue to the current site at<br />

Greenfield and Spring avenues. It was later<br />

destroyed by fire, and the current church<br />

was built in 1899.<br />

A four-unit dwelling designed by the famed<br />

Frank Lloyd Wright in 1939, Suntop Homes is<br />

located west of Church Road at the corner of<br />

Sutton Road and East Spring Avenue. The the<br />

time, Wright envisioned multiple units of<br />

low-cost, standardized housing for families. The<br />

project was dubbed the “<strong>Ardmore</strong> Experiment.”<br />

In the end, only a single set of four was finished,<br />

each unit renting for $55 a month. The modern<br />

style—featuring, wood, brick and glass—was<br />

extremely unique to <strong>Ardmore</strong> at the time.<br />

St. Colman’s Roman Catholic Church was<br />

founded in 1907. The design of the church at<br />

Lancaster Avenue and Argyle Road was inspired<br />

by French and English Gothic architecture.<br />

It was completed in 1926.<br />

Across from St. Colman’s is the Lower Merion<br />

Township Administration Building at 75 E.<br />

Lancaster Ave., built in 1926.<br />

Founded 1765 by the German Lutheran Church,<br />

St. Paul’s Cemetery includes the tombstones<br />

of war veterans who fought as far back the<br />

American Revolution. The stone structure<br />

within the cemetery is a German schoolhouse<br />

built in 1789.<br />

One of America’s first shopping centers,<br />

Suburban Square was begun in 1926. The Times<br />

Medical Building, at the center of the square,<br />

is a shining example of Art Deco architecture.<br />
