Not kidding.
It’s the new home of Aether Medicine, the cutting-edge practice of Dr. Asare Christian, one of the most caring, credentialed physicians around.
National basketball championships in 2016 and 2018.
An alumnus named pope in 2025.
Swelling enrollment numbers.
Record-setting capital campaigns.
Campus expansions to Cabrini and soon, Rosemont College.
And now, surging momentum for a would-be saint, one of its own Augustinians, Father Bill Atkinson, the world’s first quadriplegic priest.
With a winning streak like that and fellow Augustinian Pope Leo XIV leading the Church, it seems anything’s possible for Villanova these days.
Willistown Township Supervisors hit pause last night on a vote to settle the long-running Rock Hill Farm lawsuit, after eleventh-hour “communications” prompted proposed changes to the settlement agreement.
It’s been talked about for decades. Now it’s finally on the agenda. Radnor Commissioners vote Monday night on a plan to turn nearly half the North Wayne Parking Lot — 24 spaces next to Gingy’s Boutique — into a new town park. The question dividing the room: is the loss of parking worth it?
They knew Merritt’s clients better than anyone. Now they’re the ones with the gallery.

If you could conjure, a la Dr. Frankenstein, the ideal person to resurrect a landmark local theater left for dead, you’d likely land on someone just like Jennifer Carlson.

The players won’t be elite “travel team” athletes gunning for a title. In fact, they won’t even keep score; everyone goes home a winner.
Philly has more than a dozen rooftop bars.
The Main Line (Conshy doesn’t count) has three: the super-casual Great American Pub in Wayne, a smallish terrace at Lark in Bala Cynwyd, and — drumroll — Pomelo Rooftop Terrace in Radnor.
