About

Brookline is an unincorporated community in Haverford Township, Delaware County, considered alongside Oakmont to be the historic town center of Haverford. Its street grid and boulevard were platted as early as 1909 by building firm A.E. Mueller and Co., which leveraged two transit lines—the Llanerch-Ardmore Trolley (1902) on Darby Road and the Philadelphia & Western high-speed electric railroad (1907) at the neighborhood’s eastern edge—to market the community as a commuting suburb with a documented 22-minute trip to Philadelphia’s City Hall. Development proceeded through the late 1920s and early 1930s, producing a cohesive stock of brick Colonials, Dutch Colonials, and American Foursquares on a formal boulevard grid; a 1939 infill section opposite Haverford High School added Colonial Revival homes in a ‘Williamsburg’ style. The Haverford Township Historic Resource Survey identifies properties on Brookline Boulevard and Kenmore Road within the neighborhood at the ‘Very High’ significance level, and SEPTA’s active Beechwood-Brookline Station on the M Line continues the neighborhood’s rail-transit identity established over a century ago.
