First
settled in 1682 as William Penn Land Grant and incorporated in 1900 as a
Township of the First Class, Lower Merion is still a first class community
today. Whether creating a local historic district in Ardmore to protect the
exterior integrity of late 19th and early 20th century
commercial buildings or taking a proactive approach to zoning and planning
to preserve Open Space, Historic Landmarks and the Environment, this
township is vested in preserving the natural and man-made resources, along
with the legacy of the community, evoking a deep sense of civic pride and
involvement of the citizens. Offering
excellent schools, magnificent neighborhoods, superb public service, premier
commercial, office and upscale retail centers, ease of commuting to
Philadelphia, along with a rich history and strong spiritual community,
Lower Merion Township possesses a quality of life that is unsurpassed.
This is why Wayne Geftman believes that there is no better place to
call “home”.
