About this map

The Springton Reservoir and the winding course of Crum Creek dominate the landscape of central Delaware County in this mid-century revision. The area exhibits a sophisticated mix of established country estates and specialized institutions, including the sprawling Tyler Arboretum and the Radnor Hunt Club. Higher education and vocational training are represented by campuses such as the Williamson Trade School and the Sleighton Farm School, which occupied significant acreage between the maturing residential developments of Media and Newtown Square.
