Lackawanna Heritage Valley Trolley Museum

National Park Service. 1995. Lackawanna Heritage Valley Trolley Museum. Historic Structure Report

This report is a documentary picture-book that chronicles the intricate evolution of a seemingly simple, yet richly modified, nineteenth century industrial building complex. The Silk Mill Building sits on the west side of Cliff Street in downtown Scranton, PA on the west end of Steamtown National Historic Site. The County of Lackawanna and the Lackawanna Heritage Valley Authority propose the creation of a Trolley Museum in this building which will be leased from the National Park Service. Ultimately, the Trolley Museum will restore and house the East Penn Valley Traction Company’s eight trolley car collection and artifacts within this complex.
