The Glen Foerd mansion was built about 1850 by a prosperous Philadelphia banker. About 135 years later it passed into the ownership of the Fairmount Park Commission (via a winding path) . The body of water is the Delaware River, near its widest point. https://rickwomer.smugmug.com/2024/December-2024/Glenn-Foerd-Mansion/Glenfoerd-Mansion-12-2024 Comments always appreciated! Best holiday wishes to all! Rick
