Bensalem: Bucks County Township on the Delaware
Bensalem Township covers roughly 21 square miles in southern Bucks County, bordered by the Delaware River to the east and by the Pennsylvania Turnpike to the north. The township was incorporated in 1692 and takes its name from the Hebrew word for son of peace, chosen by its early Quaker and Welsh settlers. Growth accelerated after World War II as Philadelphia suburbs expanded northward along U.S. Route 1 and Interstate 95.
Parx Casino, operated by Greenwood Racing, sits along Street Road and is the largest casino in Pennsylvania by gaming revenue. The property includes a thoroughbred racetrack and a year-round card room. Neshaminy Mall, which opened in 1968, operates at the intersection of U.S. 1 and Bristol Road. The Holy Family University campus occupies land in the township's northeast corner.
The Neshaminy Creek runs through Bensalem before emptying into the Delaware. The township contains several historic landmarks including Andalusia, the Greek Revival estate built by financier Nicholas Biddle in the 1830s overlooking the river.
