New life for one-time "ghost town:" Raising the Bar's Pezza chronicles Bristol's revival

“A ghost town.” That’s how Bill Pezza, founder of Raising the Bar, described Bristol Borough by the 1990s. Now, he says, it's experiencing "a renaissance of food, entertainment, dining, theater"

The Academic Oversight Committee (AOC) established the Joseph A. Saxton Community Service Endowment Fund in 2022 to honor its former board member and to preserve his memory and impact of community service. This fund was designed to award grants (based on the discretion of the Fund’s Trustees) to a non-profit organization presented on behalf of a current or former Bristolian, focusing on the greater good of the community that imbues, embodies, and exhibits the same kind of commitment to community service --- to make Bristol Borough a better place for all its citizens --- as “Joe” or “Sax” or “the Mayor” did every day throughout his 72 years in Bristol Borough.

⚓ Along the Delaware River in Bucks County sits Bristol Borough, one of the oldest continuously settled towns in the entire United States. English settlers established it in 1681, the same year William Penn received his charter for Pennsylvania, which makes Bristol older than Philadelphia itself by a matter of months.

🏘️ For more than three centuries Bristol has stayed a working river town, home to shipbuilders, mills, and generations of families who never left. Its Mill Street historic district is lined with homes dating back to the 1700s, and the Grundy Mill complex along the water still stands as a reminder of the textile industry that once employed thousands of local residents.

🌊 Unlike a lot of small river towns that faded once their industries left, Bristol has held onto its identity, with a lively riverfront park, a historic theater, and streets that still follow their original colonial layout. Longtime residents will tell you the town has a rhythm all its own, closer to a small New England fishing village than anything else in the Philadelphia suburbs.

What is it about a town like this that makes people stay for generations?
