Legend of our Lampposts The Chef ’s Corner Let’s shed some light on the subject “One man’s junk is another man’s treasure” is certainly true as you look all around our community and see our historical lampposts. Here’s how we acquired these gems: In the early 1960’s, Bill Kay found hundreds of original Philadelphia gas lanterns piled up in an old garage. Knowing they would add to the charm and elegance of our community Mr. Kay bought all 150 of them! Our treasured lampposts have become our community symbol and proudly serve as our logo.

The Best of Drexel Hill 2012 guide to experiencing the best our surrounding community has to offer Featured Listing Toni Roni’s pizzeria is one of my favorites. They have many locations in the Philadelphia metro area and the food is always amazing. Please be sure to try their Chicken Italiano. The chicken is deliciously tender and is surrounded with the perfect combination of spinach, sharp provolone and roasted peppers. Guaranteed heaven.
