Building Projects |
    Projects Third Street Alliance has several renovation and restoration projects in the works. One of our biggest projects is the restoration of Room 31, which was originally Mr. Simon's bedroom. This room underwent many changes and eventually became a part of The Learing Center. For many years, Room 31 served as the Infant Room. Now, we are ready to restore the room to its original grandeur. This will mean plaster work, paint, the removal of a drop ceiling, tile work, and much more. It is a large project and one that will take time. But we are confident that it will be worth all the effort put into it! If you are interested in helping with this project, please contact Judy Matthewson at 610-258-6271. Our History Third Street Alliance is housed in two historical buildings. The main building is the Simon house, once the home of Visitors to the building are often struck by the elaborate woodcarving throughout the historic rooms. The dining room boasts an original mural by Taylor Rue and curved windows that were once the exterior of the building. Mr. Simon's library and den on the second floor reflect his pride in his German heritage. Each of these rooms has a magnificent fireplace and leather walls. The German influence is seen throughout the building with the exception of the front parlor, which was done in French style customary to wealthy Europeans. The original building once had formal gardens that were lost when the adjacent Touring the Simon Mansion To take a walking tour, stop by during normal business hours and pick up a brochure. On weekends, the second floor is not accessible. If you would like to arrange for a guided or group tour, please call 610-258-6271. |
