🌿 About The Woodlands
Originally the country estate of William Hamilton, The Woodlands boasts one of the nation’s most architecturally sophisticated neoclassical houses built after the American Revolution. Hamilton redesigned the Schuylkill River site in 1786, shaping it with the elegance of English picturesque landscapes.
In 1840, the estate was transformed into a rural cemetery. Still active today, it features majestic trees, Victorian funerary monuments, curving green pathways, and preserved 18th-century buildings. Recognized as a National Historic Landmark District in 2006, The Woodlands offers a rare blend of history, architecture, and nature right in the heart of University City.
✨ This is not just a walk—it’s an adventure in photography, history, and creativity. Don’t miss the chance to explore this stunning setting with fellow photographers and artists.
We can’t wait to see you there!
