Some of the most notable Victorian landmarks of suburban Philadelphia came from the drawing boards of a firm barely remembered today. The partnership of Culver & Rogers produced a variety of public buildings, businesses, and homes for newly blossoming towns including Wayne, Devon, Berwyn, and Langhorne. Further afield, controversy still follows some of their restorations of historic structures, including Independence Hall.
Greg Prichard, Historic Preservation Planner for Lower Merion Township and board member of the Radnor Historical Society, has compiled numerous scattered references relating to the firm to form a fascinating narrative. His illustrated presentation will explore the sum of their extraordinary legacy.
