food trucks and 26-foot screen can only mean Movies

bring people together to enjoy good times, a good movie,
some good food . . . all outdoors under the night sky at
Water Tower Recreation Center.

and a subscription to the award-winning weekly newspaper
is included with every membership.

goodie bags for the kids and a visit from Santa! This event is produced by the CHCA along with the
Chestnut Hill Business Association and the Woodmere Art Museum.

 
ACTIVE STEWARDSHIP and ADVOCACY
Recognizing the value of Chestnut Hill as a National Historic
District set within the sensitive natural environment known as the
Wissahickon Watershed, the Chestnut Hill Community Association
provides active stewardship of land use planning and zoning
issues within the community. The CHCA was founded back in 1947
by a core group of community members who saw their beloved
neighborhood losing its specialness to unconsidered development
and neglect. They established a vision and standards that remain
in practice today. To maintain these standards, CHCA committees
were formed to provide a process for review: Development
Review, Land Use Planning and Zoning, and Streetscape. These
committees, staffed by volunteers, work with the community
and with City agencies, including the Philadelphia City Planning
Commission, Philadelphia Streets Department, Philadelphia Water
Department, and City Council representatives.
