The Sedgwick Theater is a historic American theater in the Mt. Airy neighborhood of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It was built in 1928 and designed by architect William Harold Lee. It is one of the remaining 20 Philadelphia theaters as of 2006 which he designed; nine have been demolished. Only two in Philadelphia are open – The Ace Theater (Holiday Art Theater) and The Sedgwick Theater. Two more of Lee's theaters just outside of Philadelphia have been restored: the Bryn Mawr and the Hiway Theater in Jenkintown. The Sedgwick Theater, located at 7137 Germantown Ave in Philadelphia, is designed in the 1920s style of an art deco movie palace. It was built during a movie revolution with the advent of sync sound and hosted silent films as well as talkies. This perhaps explains the theater's design including a stage for live performance, as well as its large single screen. The Sedgwick was designed to include a balcony, but shortly before construction, it was removed from the plans (a balcony would likely have increased seating to 2000). This accounts for its vaulted ceilings.

The Lutheran Home in Germantown, now Silver Springs – Martin Luther School, began in 1859 as an orphanage for children that was originally located in the Mt. Airy, Philadelphia. This institution was a continuation of the work of Rev. William A. Passavant but was founded and managed by Elizabeth Fry Ashmead Schaeffer, who received a single dollar from Passavant and began the mission. The Lutheran Home in Germantown later moved to the Silver Springs property in Plymouth Meeting, Pennsylvania, where it continues as a residential treatment facility for children and school for elementary students and middle schoolers.

Cresheim Creek is a creek in southeastern Pennsylvania. Rising at Wyndmoor in Springfield Township (in a park near the USDA's Agricultural Research Service Eastern Regional Research Center, adjacent to the border between Montgomery County and Northwest Philadelphia), it runs about 2.7 miles (4.3 km) southwest, passing through part of Northwest Philadelphia and forming the boundary between Mount Airy and Chestnut Hill, before emptying into the Wissahickon Creek at Devil's Pool not far south of the Valley Green Inn. The Cresheim Valley below Germantown Avenue is part of Fairmount Park. The former railbed within it (see section below) is also an easement for PECO powerlines, which take advantage of the former railbed's grading and open space. In October 2013, the City of Philadelphia extended Fairmount Park ownership of the creek valley almost to the Philadelphia-Montgomery border at Stenton Avenue as part of the Wissahickon East Project, with ongoing and future efforts such as streambed cleanup and invasive species removal to restore the 6 acres (2.4 ha) of newly acquired land.Cresheim Valley Drive runs beside the creek from Stenton Avenue until southwest of the Chestnut Hill West Line tracks, where the road bends away to become Emlen Street. The stone pergola that stands at the southwest corner of the intersection of Germantown Avenue and Cresheim Valley Drive contains plaques honoring both the early German settlers of the Cresheim Valley and Samuel Newman Baxter, chief arborist of Fairmount Park from 1915 to 1945. A dirt parking area off Cresheim Valley Drive, southwest from the Chestnut Hill West railroad bridge, marks the trailhead for a set of walking paths that follow the creek for some distance downstream to its outlet.

Mount Airy station is a SEPTA Regional Rail station at 119 East Gowen Avenue between Devon and Sprague Streets, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The station building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and was built in 1875 with Frank Furness as the likely architect.

Both stations display an aggressively styled roofline in the Queen Anne Stick Style. The Mount Airy station's roof is described as "combining hipped, gabled, jerkinhead designs with a double splayed profile" and the Graver's Lane Station might be considered even more aggressive.The station is in zone 2 on the Chestnut Hill East Line, on former Reading Railroad tracks, and is 9.3 track miles from Suburban Station.

The Church of the Annunciation, also called the Church of the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, is a North Philadelphia Episcopal church in the Episcopal Diocese of Pennsylvania. It has an historic Anglo-Catholic liturgical identity. Its original name as a mission congregation beginning in 1870 was the Church of Our Merciful Saviour until 1882. Founded formally in 1880, it had 580 active members in 1960, but reported 19 in 2019; it did not file a 2020 parochial report. The church's first rector was Hermon Griswold Batterson, the third rector of S. Clement's, Philadelphia, following the end of his tenure at that church over protracted ritualist disputes and accusations of sexual misconduct in the early 1870s. In 1943, Annunciation absorbed the congregation of St. Christopher's Episcopal Church, which ended its own separate corporate existence in 1947. Annunciation BVM's congregation was mostly African American by the middle of the twentieth century. The parish's first Romanesque building was located at Twelfth and Diamond Streets in Philadelphia. Ground was broken on April 20, 1882, followed by the laying of a cornerstone on June 26, 1884. The church building included elements by the New York architectural firm of Heins & LaFarge. It included a bell tower, an adjacent parish house for educational and parochial activities, and free sittings for 650 persons in addition to a large chancel for acolytes and choristers. The reredos was painted by Anita Sargent and Marianna Sloan. Incense was first used in 1888, and the Blessed Sacrament was reserved from February 4, 1896 onward. It was among the first Anglican churches anywhere in the world to practice Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament and eucharistic exposition. Nuns from the Sisterhood of the Holy Nativity worked in the parish as visitors, sacristans, and educators. The parish also had a close connection to the Order of the Holy Cross, an Anglican religious order for men in which long-time rector the Rev. Robert C. Hofmeister was a postulant twice in the 1960s. The church occasionally shared services with St. Alban's Church, Olney, another small Philadelphia Anglo-Catholic parish. The first church burned on the night of April 6, 1990 but its parish hall was used for worship briefly after that time. Its congregation also worshiped with S. Clement's Church following the fire. The remains of the church were demolished at an unknown date. The congregation then moved to a new building in Northwest Philadelphia near Mount Airy. The church previously had a large number of internal organizations, including a Sunday school, Episcopal Church Women, the Guild of St. Vincent for Acolytes, S. Mary's Guild, S. Elizabeth's Guild, S. Laurence's Guild, S. Agnes' Guild, St. Ambrose Guild, and wards of the Guild of All Souls and the Confraternity of the Blessed Sacrament. Several of its clergy were also associated with the Congregation of the Companions of the Holy Saviour (CSSS), an Anglo-Catholic fraternity for celibate male priests.
