You Can Walk To Parks, Shopping, Restaurants, & Trains. Public Transportation Can Provide You Access To Downtown Philadelphia And The King Of Prussia Mall In Just 15-20 Minutes. As You Walk Around The Beautiful Tree Lined Streets You Will Notice Some Of The Spectacular Stone Homes That Were Built In The Early 1900's. There Are Lots Of Specialty Shops Along Lancaster Ave And Many Restaurants To Choose From Like Tango Bistro, Cosi, Bertucci's, Etc., Additionally, There Are Many Top Rated Universities Situated In The Immediate Area Like Villanova University, Cabrini College, Rosemont College, Bryn Mawr College, & Haverford College. Lastly, There Is An Excellent Hospital Situated Right in Downtown Bryn Mawr. All Of This Creates A Diverse And Vibrant Local Economy. Bryn Mawr Is An Excellent Place To Live and Work."
