    My parents grew up in Monessen, and I spent my childhood exploring its streets, collecting penny candy from Grecco's store, and walking downtown to Isleys with my nanny. I often walked from my Nana's house to Mary's bar for a snack, creating cherished memories along the way. My uncle Ryan played high school football, and as a 5-year-old, I cheered from the stadium seats where I would later buy my first home nearly 20 years down the line. Although I grew up in Maryland, Monessen shaped my upbringing in profound ways.
    After my mom passed away in 2003, I recognized the importance of family and community, prompting me to move back to Monessen. When my husband and I bought our first home, we deliberately chose this place because it felt like home to me. I had invested so much into the people and the area before making that decision, and I stand by that choice with pride. The kindness of the community shines brightest in challenging times, and I have faith that Monessen will rebuild and thrive once more. Let's work together to support its resurgence.

    I was born and raised in McKeesport. We moved away when I was 14, right before things started to go south. My dad worked in the steel mills until he got too sick and had to take early retirement. The city I remember was shown in these pics. It was a thriving, bustling city. A little tough and gritty, too. I’m glad we got out in time.

    Great coverage love your Pennsylvania coverage. FYI Steel Mills in the Mon Valley closed in the late 70s not just because of foreign steel imports but environmental regulations here in the US could not be easily met by mills build in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Whereas after the World War II we helped Japan and Germany rebuild their industrial infrastructure which gave them more environmentally friendly Steel Facilities.
    One Ghost Town you drove thru and probably didn’t even realize was Wehrum, there on Wehrum Road as you drove to Vintondale. I remember seeing the old elementary school (where my mom and uncle went to school) back on left heading east on Wehrum Road toward Vintondale.

      My paternal grandmother grew up in Vintondale. It is one of the towns along the Ghost Town Trail in Cambria and Indiana counties. I grew up near there and attended the Wehrum school the last 3 years it was open. Grandma would tell stories of Wehrum and the nice hotel they had. In the early 70s, you could see the foundations of many buildings/houses, but the only standing structures then were the school and the 3 or 4 houses near it. One of my school classmates and her family lived on a farm near Dilltown which included the ghost (mining) town of Scott Glen. I have no idea if anything remains of it today.

    PA is full of little secrets about secluded back waters. I also have one. Its a lost town called Bly Town in McKean County, PA near Turtlepoint. It was the first settlement town of various immigrant folk who moved south from NY state and beyond after the completion of the Erie canal. Working from North to South they settleed "Bly Town" as a "base camp". From there they settled the surrounding areas. Bly Town has long since been reclaimed by the forest but its still out there somewhere.

It was partly demolished to make way for the Boulevard of the Allies after WWI with all the filthiest remnants basically fully cleared away by the 1960s or so.
