In 1987, Tyler Hall and Tyler Formal Gardens were
placed on the National Register of Historical Places.
Formal restoration of the gardens began in 1999, with the
approval from the college and some financial assistance
from its Foundation. Most of the financial needs of
restoring the garden come from fund-raising events and
donations, and a lion's share of the labor comes from
volunteers.
The college and all those involved in the restoration
process hope that you enjoy your time in the gardens.
Please help keep their efforts moving forward by
respecting the following few requests:
- Please do not sit or climb on the sculpture.
- Please do not engage in any sports activities,
including martial arts and yoga, on the lawns.
- Please do not litter or drop cigarette butts
on the ground.
- Please do not toss stones or coins into
the fountains.
- Please pick up after your pets.
- Wedding parties are asked to register with the
college and the Security Office (215-968-8394).
Thank you.
