Swarthmore's Quaker Borough, Built Around the College
Swarthmore was settled by Quakers and developed alongside Swarthmore College, founded in 1864, which still anchors the borough's walkable core. Unlike Penn Valley or Gladwyne, it's an incorporated borough with its own compact street grid rather than a stretch of township.
Housing near campus runs to Victorian and Arts and Crafts-era homes from the late 1800s and early 1900s, many with original wood trim, porches, and plaster interiors, while newer construction fills in toward the borough's edges. The older stock needs the same careful scraping and priming any century-old wood trim does before a finish coat holds, and the borough's tight, walkable lots mean protecting a neighbor's driveway or garden bed is as much a part of the job as the painting.
PAINT has completed more than 3 projects in and around Swarthmore this year.
