A recent Haverford Township Zoning decision has given a local builder a partial victory on plans to build four apartments and a showroom at Jack Quinn’s Lamplighter Tavern, a long-closed landmark at Campbell Avenue and Darby Road in the Oakmont section of the township. The original structure dating back to the 1890s was built as a home. The Lamplighter Tavern opened in 1971. The Haverford Township Zoning Hearing Board approved a conditional use and parking variance requests for DMC Elite Properties for the former tavern. Neighbors expressed concern with potential parking issues.
