Monson
We recently visited the town of Monson operational from 1737 - 1770. At it's peak the town had 293 residents. When they couldn't agree on much, not even on putting up a school or a church, they decided to call it quits.
We've thrown together an interactive map. Give it a spin!

Concrete City
According to the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission, Concrete City was notable for early use of
International Style architectural concepts in creating "model" industrial housing . . The homes, built by
the DL & W (Delaware, Lackawanna and Western) Railroad's Coal Division for forty Truesdale Colliery
employees, were opened in 1913. Constructed of poured concrete, the twenty two-story rectangular double
houses surrounded a park. Controlled by the Glen Alden Coal Company after 1921. It was abandoned in 1924.
