c.1900 Pennsylvania Church For Sale $40K

OHU50K Notes $40,000

Here we have a church for sale. The realtor’s 1920 build date is incorrect as the 1st Reformed Church shows up as early as 1902 on the Sanborn Fire Insurance Map.

The church is located in a town in the eastern part of the state. It is situated on the eastern bank of the Susquehanna River, just southeast of the city of Harrisburg, the state capital.

Historically, the town has strong ties to the steel industry, hence its name. The borough was founded in 1866 by the Pennsylvania Steel Company, which established a large steel mill in the area. The mill, known as the Pennsylvania Steel Works, played a significant role in the industrialization of the region and attracted a diverse population of workers, including immigrants from Europe.

During its peak, it was a bustling industrial town with a thriving steel industry. The mill provided employment opportunities for thousands of people and contributed to the local economy. However, like many other steel towns across the United States, Steelton faced economic challenges in the latter half of the 20th century. The decline of the American steel industry led to layoffs and the closure of the steel mill in the 1980s, resulting in significant job losses and a decline in population.

Despite the challenges, Steelton has made efforts to revitalize its economy and community. Today, the borough has a diverse economy with a mix of industries, including manufacturing, logistics, and healthcare. The proximity to Harrisburg also provides additional employment opportunities for residents.
