Alden Park Manor is an apartment complex located at School House Lane and Wissahickon Avenue in the Germantown neighborhood of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. == History ==
Alden Park apartments were begun in 1908 and built in the Jacobean Revival style. The complex has three sets of towers, the Manor, Kenilworth, and Cambridge buildings. Designed by Edwin Rorke and developed by Lawrence Jones, it was built in a park-like setting on thirty-eight acres that had been the Justus C. Strawbridge estate. It was the first co-operative apartment complex in Philadelphia, although it now operates only as rentals. The complex is located overlooking the Wissahickon Valley section of Fairmount Park in the city's Germantown section. The buildings were once surrounded by lawns, gardens, and large estates, but is now in a more urban setting dominated by multi-story apartment houses, busy streets and parked cars. The complex features a unique swimming pool which is lined with Mercer tiles and has a retractable roof. The complex was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980 and on the Philadelphia Register of Historic Places in 1981. The complex was substantially renovated in the early 2000s as well as since 2011.
