Description


Media Armory

The Media Armory, is a historic National Guard armory located in Media, Delaware County, Pennsylvania. It was built in 1908 for company H of the 6th Infantry Regiment of the Pennsylvania National Guard. The building was originally used for training and the storage of arms and ammunition, but has been converted for use into a Trader Joe's grocery store and the Pennsylvania Veterans Museum. The structure's intended military use is expressed by its heavily buttressed walls, broken battlements, and low flanking towers," according to a 1984 plaque afixed to the building by the Media Borough Council.
