Local Information
Glen Foerd on the Delaware, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, is located on 18 acres at the confluence of the Poquessing Creek and Delaware River in Northeast Philadelphia. The estate was saved from demolition by a coalition of dedicated neighbors in the immediate community in the late 1980s. They formed the non-profit Glen Foerd Conservation Corporation to manage and operate the estate, which is leased from Philadelphia Parks and Recreation.
