Thanks so much for this video, lots of family came from Pottsville!

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...

Excellent video! Tremendous changes since I moved away in 1963! Good luck with your project.

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

Went here today, marvelous city

It takes at least two to Mahantango.

I love pottsville PA

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

Pottsville is a beautiful town. Love being there!!!

Thank you ,loved the music too,

Very interesting.

🎉thanks for info

Great video, looking forward to more of them.

You certainly made the town look good. Agree with Thomas on the music.

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

Great Video and awesome effort! Spot the Moe-Bleichner Music Distribution offices at 2:34!

My great grandparents and grandparents are from Pottsville PA. Does anyone know any with the last name of Burkey or Reinhart?

My uncle lived in Pottsville... Mario Cherry

I lived St. Clair most of my life. There is no opportunity there. I moved to knoxville, tennessee in 2013.

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.

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.

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

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?

Nice

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 likes the commonwealth, states, penna, bros loves.ol school,is a cast systems. Is hard and expensive.

I live there 🥰

Definitely every single one of those buildings is haunted.

at 3:39 i know the people who live there real nice people

Music way too loud

Hi

Was

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.
