    "The HISTORY of Germantown is remarkable! Most of the homes are giant, historic, well built with yards & street parking. I live next to the Awbury Arboretum, its always open to the public and they just opened the "Adventure Woods" for families. Neighbors are friendly and help each other on my block. Also, Germantown has the Wissahickon Park with over 50 miles of beauty."
