The Meadville Area Chamber of Commerce is one of the ten oldest Chambers in the United States. We were organized in 1807 in the log court house and meeting hall on Diamond Park- the site of the present day Founder's House. Henry Baldwin- then the first district attorney for western Pennsylvania and future U.S. Supreme Court Justice as well as Roger Alden, agent for the Holland Land Company were two of its primary organizers- both from New Haven, CT.
