Culver & Rogers, Philadelphia Architects and their Main Line Projects

Greg Prichard

Some of the western Main Line's most architecturally interesting Victorian-era landmarks came from the drawing boards of a firm that is virtually unknown today. Newton Culver and Thomas Mellon Rogers' partnership resulted in public schools, stores, and prominent homes that made the towns of Wayne, Devon, and Berwyn stand out in their earliest years of development. This illustrated lecture explored the extraordinary work of Culver & Rogers, from long lost buildings to survivors and remnants that were easily recognized.

This presentation was held at the Tredyffrin Public Library in Strafford, PA starting at 2 pm. Visitors are cordially invited, and there is no admission charge at our public meetings.
