 In
the beginning, there was a village. One boisterous St. Patrick’s
Day, the burghers at Joshua Evans’ 18th-century tavern
launched a series of toasts to Corsican leader Pasquale Paoli,
who’d fashioned independence and democracy for his island
republic. [ ... ]

Plans mulled
for train station site
By
DAN KRISTIE , Daily Local News - 09/16/2008
TREDYFFRIN - Community leaders are working
on a proposal to help sell the Paoli Transit Center project
to neighbors who may be wary of it.
The plan is to make the current Paoli Train Station, which
will be demolished after the transit center is built, into
a "village green."
"Downtown Paoli has almost zero green
space," said Ed Auble, a Paoli Business Association member
who helped craft the proposal. "If there were a village
green, and it were well done, it would be something we could
all point to as a Paoli landmark."

Paoli
train station project gets big boost
By DAN KRISTIE, Staff Writer,
Daily Local News - 09/03/2008
TREDYFFRIN — The Paoli train station
project received a $500,000 bipartisan boost from Republican
U.S. Rep. Jim Gerlach and Democratic U.S. Rep. Joe Sestak.
The pair jointly announced the federal earmark for Amtrak
to build a new transit center at the Paoli Rail Yard.
The congressmen said the new transit center
will have implications beyond regional transit.
"We recognize, Joe Sestak and I, that
this is such an important project for the continued redevelopment
of this area," said Gerlach, R-6th, of West Pikeland.
"It will improve the quality of life and the quality
of transit here."
Sestak, D-7th, of Edgmont, has opposed
the change in FAA flight patterns that would take many of
the Philadelphia International Airport's flights over residential
areas in his district. He said a better Paoli Transit Center
could help decrease reliance on air travel.
