welcome

Hey
Here you will find a series of articles, books, and Urban Archives listings related to your Germantown projects. The majority of the ones here are about troubles that are and have historically faced the Germantown area of Philadelphia, mostly in the last 100 years.

Germantown was once a separate city, but was eventually incorporated into Philadelphia. The area is centered at the intersection of Germantown Ave and Chelten Ave, but extends from approximately Cliveden down to the railroads and the Roosevelt Expressway. It is an "umbrella" neighborhood, there are several sub-neighborhoods within it.

Feel free to contact me with any questions, my e-mail is tuc31970@temple.edu, or corner me in class.
