UPPER DUBLIN, PA — Temple University's picturesque Ambler campus is looking at potentially millions of dollars in damage stemming from Hurricane Ida, which twisted and felled thousands of trees and plants, some of which were around 100 years old, according to a report in the Philadelphia Inquirer.

The newspaper recently profiled the effort by Temple Ambler, which is technically in Upper Dublin Township, to build back, and to use the storm damage as a learning opportunity, through a piece it ran on Friday.
