Aerial views of the Leeds and Northrup plant and laboratory in the Nicetown-Tioga section of Philadelphia. The company was
founded by Morris E. Leeds and Edwin F. Northrup in 1903. Originally known as Morris E. Leeds & Company, the organization
produced electrical measuring instruments for laboratory and testing use and was an important supplier of this equipment to
industrial markets. In the late 1990's, the company became the L&N Metallurgical Products Company. The facility consists of
several buildings and sits alongside railroad tracks very near a residential area with row homes.
