Media Borough

Media, the Delaware County Seat, presents itself as "the last suburban town in America with a trolley running down the main street."

Media is home to the Dr. Samuel D. Risley house which was included on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.

It was built 1877-1878 for Quaker, Elton Gifford, an executive with a Philadelphia dry-goods firm. Granite for the residence came from the quarry of J Howard Lewis in nearby Springfield township.

Philadelphia physician, Dr. Risley, purchased the residence in 1886.
