Riverview Farm
This house, at 412 Riverview Rd., was the original house which oversaw the Riverview farm. The house and farm were built in 1916 for Louis Cole Simmons, and spanned from Thayer Road to Ogden Ave. It was one of the original tracts of land that was granted to form the Borough of Swarthmore.
