In March 1850, the Borough of Media was officially incorporated by a Special Act of Assembly. This collection is a portrait of the borough as it exists in 2025. To that end, we’re collecting photographs of every building in the borough.
Architecture is interesting, it's part of what makes Media such a distinctive place. Photos that show family members, business owners, organization staffs, volunteers and members, clergy and congregations are also included to provide a fuller portrait of Media in 2025.

This is a photo of Christ Episcopal Church. A charter incorporating the Parish was obtained from the County Court in 1854. The cornerstone was laid in 1858, and the church was consecrated in 1860. The church has functioned as a house of worship continuously ever since. We celebrated our 170th anniversary in November of 2024 with a rededication of the church.

At Greatest Hits Records and Books you will find plastered poster walls, a green checkered floor, and bins of vinyl waiting to be flipped through and used books waiting to be read —it’s everything you love about a classic record and book shop. A record shop from the 1980s called Right Hemisphere used to be located on this same block.
