Upper Dublin Township

Upper Dublin dates back to the Colonies in 1684, when Edward Tanner named his land grant from William Penn “Upper and Lower Dublin.” The “lower” portion has since been absorbed by Philadelphia. The “upper” portion has continued to exist around the original survey for the laying out and naming of Susquehanna Road. Upper Dublin Township was formally created on September 10, 1784, and granted its current status of First Class Township in the State of Pennsylvania on January 1, 1946. Originally, the area started as a farming community with additional activity in the mining of limestone. Limekiln Pike today continues to be an important travel artery. Historically, the Township boasts of George Washington’s headquarters at the Emlen House in 1777. This was during the Whitemarsh Encampment, prior to the fateful march to Valley Forge. George Emlen, a Philadelphia Quaker, had built this family summer house around 1745.

The primary center of business and industry in the Township is the Fort Washington Office Park. It occupies 536 acres. There is about 6 million square feet of building area in the park. There are more than 65 buildings of various sizes up to 658,535 square feet. The Fort Washington Office Park contains the Fort Washington Expo Center (the largest single floor center of its type on the East coast), Honeywell, CDNow, Aetna, NCO, GE Financial, and Temple University to name a few. There are other centers of business and industry as well throughout the Township.
