Bluestone slabs formed the sidewalks of the town's business district in the 1870's and are well over 100 years old. Cut from the Pennsylvania Slate Belt, they were delivered to the town's Road Overseer. Maps from 1874 show Main Street as 60 feet wide and depict the Horse Car Company's rail tracks, evidence of the business district's primary transportation.
