Port Kennedy was an industrial village located where U.S. Route 422 (Pottstown Expressway) now crosses the Schuylkill River in Upper Merion Township, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, United States.
Built along the Schuylkill Canal and, after 1838, the Reading Railroad, this village was a center for the lime industry during the nineteenth century.
The location of the find was forgotten until 2006, when the Port Kennedy Bone Cave was rediscovered.
[1] Planning for U.S. Route 422 between the Schuylkill Expressway (Interstate 76) and Trooper Road began in 1964.
Most of the village was demolished for construction of the superhighway and Betzwood Bridge, which opened to traffic in 1967.
