The Forgotten Pennsylvania Town That Used To Be A Massive Industrial Hub

America’s very first Carnegie library once made millworkers take a tunnel to a basement bathhouse before they could check out a book. Clean hands first, then the reading room. That rule tells you a lot about the town around it. This little borough in Pennsylvania still has a working steel mill, one Andrew Carnegie built in the 1870s.
