History
Colwyn, a municipality located in Delaware County, PA is the oldest section of the state of Pennsylvania that was developed by settlers. Through peaceful interactions and the equitable relations between the Lenni Lenape Indians and the Swedish settlers, European settlements were able to grow significantly in Delaware County, as both races continued to work the land on the banks of the Delaware River.
In more recent history, Colwyn has struggled with financial turmoil and political difficulties, but many people living in the area enjoy easy access to historical, cultural, and artistic sites in the surrounding Philadelphia and Delaware Counties.

Colwyn is in an excellent location with close proximity to countless highly rated entertainment, arts, restaurant, and sports facilities.

- Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts - A premier Philadelphia concert and arts venue, the Kimmel Center is a theater that offers spectacular shows of many varieties.

The garden is near the intersection of 54th Street and Lindbergh Boulevard, in Philadelphia. It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1960.
