Cheltenham Township

Tucked along Tookany Creek in Montgomery County just north of Philadelphia, Cheltenham Township is a community whose character is shaped by its leafy residential setting and close ties to the city. The township includes Elkins Park, Wyncote, Melrose Park and parts of Glenside, communities connected by established neighborhoods, local parks and SEPTA Regional Rail service. Its defining landmark is Beth Sholom Synagogue in Elkins Park, Frank Lloyd Wright’s only synagogue design, completed in 1959; its sharply faceted roof is a notable work of modern American religious architecture. Cheltenham Township reflects the Philadelphia area’s long suburban growth, balancing commercial corridors with quieter streets.
