The land that was to become Haddon Heights was settled in 1699 by John Hinchman. In 1713, John Siddon built a farmhouse near Hinchman's property. John Thorn Glover dammed King's Run and constructed a mill race and fulling mill on this property before 1776. Jacob Hinchman built a frame dwelling no later than 1720 that was later enlarged by American Revolutionary War hero Col. Joseph Ellis. New Jersey governor Joseph Bloomfield later purchased this property.
In 1890, Benjamin A. Lippincott constructed a passenger station in the center of his land for the Atlantic City Railroad. Then Lippincott, with Charles Hillman, filed a grid street plan with Camden County to develop a community. They named it Haddon Heights because of its proximity to Haddonfield and its high elevation. Large houses were constructed that appealed to prosperous middle-class families moving from the cities. In 1904, Haddon Heights was incorporated as a borough and Lippincott was elected mayor. A small downtown grew near the railroad and the White Horse Pike and eight churches and a synagogue were built. An area of old Centre Township, known as Fairfield Estates, voted in 1926 to become part of Haddon Heights. This land was developed for more single-family housing through the 1940s and 1950s. Even though rail passenger service ceased in July 1965, Haddon Heights remains a typical turn-of-the-twentieth-century railroad suburb with tree-shaded streets and comfortable homes.
Haddon Heights is a wonderful little town six miles from the Liberty Bell. At about 7,500 people it is half the size of Haddonfield and Collingswood but twice the small town feeling. It was originally settled during the Colonial period and we still have four Pre-Revolutionary War homes that are occupied. Betsy Ross fulled the fabric for the first flag at the Glover Fulling Mill. The town itself was laid out in 1890 as a “new town” planned community along the railroad line to Atlantic City. The White Horse Pike was our “grand avenue” and is now our professional office district. Haddon Heights is the only town in South Jersey with its original passenger and freight station and freight trains still travel daily to Beesley’s Point. We have five elementary schools and a high school. OUR CHILDREN STILL WALK TO SCHOOL.
While we are only two miles from the PATCO Speedline and Center City Philadelphia, we have remained a small town “Friendly Community.” We have a viable two block main street, Station Avenue, that has: an old fashioned grocery store, John’s Friendly Market, a florist, chocolate shop, photographer, tailor, cleaners, sporting goods, children’s shop, gift shops, banks, hair dressers, interior decorating store, two custom jewelers and a nice array of coffee shops and luncheonettes topped off with our fine dining restaurants Elements, Anthony’s Ristorante and Kunkel’s Steak and Seafood. We have other shopping areas on the Black Horse Pike and King’s Highway.
