Alden Park Manor, Apartment complex in Germantown, Philadelphia, US.

The Alden Park Manor spans across thirty-eight acres with three primary tower buildings named Manor, Kenilworth, and Cambridge in the Jacobean Revival style.

The complex marked a significant shift in Philadelphia residential development as the first cooperative apartment building in the city's history.

The National Register of Historic Places status ensures preservation guidelines while allowing residents access to tax benefits for property maintenance and restoration.

The indoor swimming pool features specialized Mercer tiles and includes a retractable roof system, adding architectural distinction to the residential complex.
