The Delaware County Institute of Science was formed on September 21, 1833 as an association at first of only five individuals; namely George Miller, Minshall Painter, John Miller, George Smith, M.D., and John Cassin. These friends were interested in sciences and natural history. When membership increased it became necessary for the Institute to obtain real estate and an application was made to the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania for corporate privileges, which were granted on the 8th of February, 1836. A "hall of modest pretensions was built in Upper Providence in 1837 at which the members continued to hold their meetings until after the middle of the 1800's" (From George Smith's "History of Delaware County, published by this Institute in 1862.) In 1850 when Media was incorporated as a borough and also became the seat of government for Delaware County, it seemed wise to move the institute to that town, and to be nearer public transportation. Minshall painter obtained and presented to the organization the grounds on which the present building stands. The building was constructed in 1867. As before "The object of the association was to promote the study and diffusion of general knowledge and the establishment of a museum. And to serve as a non-profit organization for the people of Delaware County and adjoining areas."
Things To Do in Lester: Cedar Park #7 of 30 Things To Do in Lester
Cedar Park (Neighborhood)
Philadelphia PA
~6.76 miles from Lester city center
Hotels Close to Cedar Park
The park is part of the streetscape -- separated from traffic by low concrete walls and a few fences, but open enough that what happens in the park is well in view to everyone around. Which is good, I think. The park functions as a part of the neighborhood, with people's homes on one side and the commercial strip between 49th and 50th on the other. A new playground was installed just in the last year or so. Usually at least a few kids are hanging around, happy to play with other kids who happen by. The local bums have their own hangout spot along a wall a little further down the street, and they seem well disposed to keep a friendly eye on the kids, keeping their alcoholic energies to themselves. In my opinion, it works out pretty well. The commercial strip across the street includes the Satellite cafe, the liquor store (Pennsylvania Wine and Spirits), Elena's Soul Lounge, and the Dock Street brewery and pizza joint in the old Firehouse at 50th St. with a bicycle shop and acupuncture outfit up the exterior staircase.
