I have lived in Pottsville since 1966. My neighborhood is nice. There are many good people who look out for each other here.
I pray to God pottsville wins the chance to get a town makeover God willing! My dad and I and the whole town would appreciate that so much...
Why? Small towns are wonderful.
Do it yourself
yeah some of the roads need fixing like the one infront of the mansion facing the playground
Excellent video! Tremendous changes since I moved away in 1963! Good luck with your project.
Me too - in 1965
Thanks so much for this video, lots of family came from Pottsville!
The majestic theatre at 4:08-4:15 routinely holds some sizeable events in the town and is probably one of the most active venues in the community
When I was growing up in Shamokin, it had Capitol. Majestic, and Victoria theaters. The Vicky was a national landmark, but it was torn down.
When I was younger, I actually had my preschool graduation ceremony at the majestic theater so, that was cool I guess
My mother grew up in Pottsville; I loved hearing stories about her and her cronies and their antics. One notable place in Pottsville is the Necho Allen old age home which was a hotel at one time. The place really didn't turn me on. Hotel Magee in Bloomsburg was a great place to stay; that was my home away from home for some time
My great grandparents and grandparents are from here. My great grandma Edna Burkey was born in 1892 and died 1994. I was 14 at the time. My grandma was born in 1915 she had 10 children her first 4 were born here and then she moved to Lake Milton, Ohio for the many mills we use to have. I always loved this small town. Even though there was not much to do. I loved hearing all the stories.
bruh i live in pottsville on peacock street this place is hot garbage, druggies everywhere my aunt is homeless and lives where ever she's not the only homeless person in this shitty city either.
Pottsville is a beautiful town. Love being there!!!
Thank you ,loved the music too,
I was thinking the same thing. Great music.
Very interesting.
Went here today, marvelous city
It takes at least two to Mahantango.
You certainly made the town look good. Agree with Thomas on the music.
I love pottsville PA
Great video, looking forward to more of them.
🎉thanks for info
My grandparents old upholstery shop and my old apartment where in there.
i was born and raised in pottsville
Thank you...so very much...Well done
My great grandparents and grandparents are from Pottsville PA. Does anyone know any with the last name of Burkey or Reinhart?
Great Video and awesome effort! Spot the Moe-Bleichner Music Distribution offices at 2:34!
I lived St. Clair most of my life. There is no opportunity there. I moved to knoxville, tennessee in 2013.
Do you know any Reinharts or Burkey's?
I grew up in Shamokin and sometimes wonder what might have been different if it had been Pottsville instead, because Pottsville was much more substantial. Subsequently, Shamokin has totally disintegrated, with hardly any institutions surviving that existed during my time there.
My uncle lived in Pottsville... Mario Cherry
Pottsville will never come back it's dead it will soon be a ghost town it's been on the decline since the 1970es now they don't even have a grocery store in town a lot of people depended on giant market thay had a lot of people that walked to the store and I am one of them . Now it is harder to get groceries I have to walk to wise market If it was not for the salvation army store, the drug stores,cash and trading,dollar store, bank's and post office there would be no foot traffic.and the population is declineing look at all the empty house's and places that they have torened down.
So the Boyer's on Market St isn't a grocery store?
Did you say "torened"?
Ever been to Wheel? It’s fantastic.
My great grandparent and grandparents are from here. My great grandma was born in 1892 and died in 1994 I was 14 at the time. My grandma was born in 1915 she moved to Ohio but had her first 4 children in Pa the rest in Ohio. She had 10 kids. She moved for the steel mills. I loved hearing about all of the stories. All of the small towns that built America are now ghost towns.
@@smcginley122 Yes I have. Do you know anyone with the last name of Reinhart or Burkey?
My cousin met JFK on Garfield Square when he visited.🙏
Thanks
Such beautiful memories I have of Pottsville my husband and I lived on center st now the apt building is condemned like most of these properties why not fix them up for low income or homeless people and let them have something nice and pet friendly as well but they do need to kill off all the roaches on w market st the pet store that us to be there was infested with hundred and hundreds of roaches and infested the who town kill off the roaches maybe I'll consider moving back of it is nice again and all of the sweet people I remember that lived there in the 86 are gone I often think about them and wonder what happened to them and my neighbor in minerville too
You don't have a husband, just a jail sentence if you don't stop hacking my phones and stalking me narcissist
So I'm looking to buy a house in pottsville, a really really nice house the listing is boasting that they have a great downtown area full of shops and diners and what not. How true is this?
Very true.. There are many places and local events if you are an active person looking to be involved in the community and not just party.
@@bettyspiess356 I know a lot of people talk a lot crap about pottsville and I do understand it has a rough side but that's why I asked
@@pressureflipin1992 wouldnt reccomend moving to pottsville, nothing happens and full of junkies.
@@middlemantheape5588 so I hear. It's hard finding a decent place to live that isn't $600,000
@@pressureflipin1992 yeah it is extremely hard to find a nice place to live around here, although my home is nice. My home has been around for a very long time so it is pretty beat up though.
Nice
I likes the commonwealth, states, penna, bros loves.ol school,is a cast systems. Is hard and expensive.
Some times i think people talk shit in the comment sections about the town they live in on purpose just to keep outsiders from moving there cause Pottstown is not cheap and if it is so bad, then why the fuck would you continue living there??? Move to coatesville, same damn prices and much nicer.
I live there 🥰
Same
Anyone wanna meet up
Do you know anyone with the last name of Reinhart or Burkey?
at 3:39 i know the people who live there real nice people
Definitely every single one of those buildings is haunted.

Hi
Music way too loud
Wow! Great information. I'm an investor in Pottsville. Despite our first impression of the town itself ; I believe a lot more people from larger cities will continue to flip homes and create opportunity for small businesses to thrive. I did notice there's no local grocery shops, cafes, and diverse restaurants.There is so much potential in this city. I look forward to seeing this town in a few more years.
I’m looking for a house to rent
