HISTORY

A Mark of Industry in
Philadelphia

Harbisons Dairy was constructed in the late
19th century when the neighborhood was
known for its working-class character. In
1865, Robert Harbison moved his family
from Gwynedd, PA to Kensington to start
his dairy empire.

“The reactivation of this building will help turn
Kensington back into an industrial powerhouse
without destroying its history."
-Sterling Wilson, Developer
