Initially, the town functioned as a summer destination for families escaping the extreme heat of Philadelphia’s summer months. As wealthy railroad executives began establishing themselves permanently in Haverford, the development of the railroad grew, making the township an even easier commute to the city. Much of the farmland was purchased by these families who replaced crops and such with large manors and gardens. The sprawling mansions and large homes that characterize the Main Line region, began to populate Haverford’s landscape. Some of these historical estates still exist today, and demonstrate the tremendous size of these homes, which ranged from 31 to 76 acres.
