Title A name given to the resource Keystone Theatre Description An account of the resource The Keystone Theatre, once located at Lehigh Avenue and 11th Street, was one of the many playhouses, theatres and entertainment attractions along Lehigh Avenue during the turn of last century. Designed by architect Albert E. Westover, the Keystone opened in 1911 originally as a vaudeville theatre and had a capacity of about 1900 seats. The old show house premiered all kinds of musical and theatrical acts for matinee and evening productions, and tickets ranged anywhere from 5-20 cents. In the 1940’s, the theatre changed management to Warner Brother Corporation, where it stayed until its closure and demolition in 1959. The history of the Keystone Theatre is reminiscent of a time where there was an abundance of entertainment amenities along Lehigh Avenue, and when local theaters had more importance in American society.

Title A name given to the resource Lillian Marrero Library Description An account of the resource Background Originally known as the Lehigh Avenue Branch Library, this was the third library built with funds from Andrew Carnegie to serve the communities of Central North Philadelphia, Fairhill, St. Edwards/Hartranft, and West Kensington. Carnegie’s grant program went on to fund twenty-five branch libraries, which greatly increased public resources available to everyone. This program provided the funds to build 1,679 libraries throughout the country and Philadelphia was one of the largest grant recipients for library construction. The library was designed by Philadelphia architectural firm Hewitt & Hewitt and was opened on November 20, 1906. It was one of the most elaborate and largest libraries in the city. There were talks about relocating the library in 1965 but it was rehabilitated instead in 1967. The site was later renamed in 2005 as the Lillian Marrero branch, in memory of a dedicated librarian who worked there since the 1990’s. She wasa Puerto Rican immigrant who moved to the city with her husband and later completed a PhD at Temple University. Lillian Marrero-Rios was incredibly dedicated to her community, she even ran a food bank which is still serving the community. Inspired by Marrero’s legacy, this library is currently part of an initiative called the 21st Century Free Libraries, which rethinks the purpose of libraries in today’s world. In this way, they can serve their community in the most impactful way: through increasing digital literacy and access to resources.
