Valley Green, 1869

Wissahickon above Red Bridge

Fairmount Park, Philadelphia, Pa.

The white Valley Green Hotel owned by I. D.(?) Casselberry stands alone in the midst of a heavily wooded area. The hotel is situated on a wide dirt road. The wooden fence to the left of the building is in disrepair. A closed passenger coach is in the distance. A hitching post is across the street from the hotel. Two men stand on the wide hotel porch.
