When my deceased mother was young, her father was the live-in caretaker of the estate next to that of Leopold Sokowski. I would love to drive by that area the next time I visit Philadelphia. I believe that the neighborhood may have been either Fairmont Park or Wissahicken(sp?) Can you help me? Thanks for reading this - Carolark
