Conshohocken ( ; Lenape: "Kanshihàkink") is a borough on the Schuylkill River in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, in suburban Philadelphia. Historically a large mill town and industrial and manufacturing center, after the decline of industry in recent years Conshohocken has developed into a center of riverfront commercial and residential development. In the regional slang, it is sometimes referred to by the colloquial nickname Conshy ( ). The name "Conshohocken" comes from the Unami language, from either "Kanshi'hak'ing", meaning "Elegant-ground- place", or, more likely, "Chottschinschu'hak'ing", which means "Big-trough-ground-place" or "Large-bowl-ground-place", referring to the big bend in the "Tulpe'hanna" (Turtle River, or modern Schuylkill River).
