The Alliance successfully nominated two properties to the Philadelphia Register of Historic Places last week at the August Historical Commission meeting! The former Engine 13 Firehouse at 1517 Parrish St. was designated as a wonderful example of municipal Beaux-Arts architecture. The one-time home of Siegmund Lubin, an early motion picture pioneer, at 1608 N. 15th St. was also designated.
