Unfortunately the 'Then' pic is from quite a distance.
What is interesting or me, is seeing what looks like some of the original boxed out window façade still there.
I'll tell you too, Pa sure looks to be a beautiful state!!

Thanks for posting this, Steve. Cool old station back in the day. And it gets extra points from me for being in Pottstown.

WHEN I TRAVEL ON I-81 TO UPSTATE NY I WILL ALWAYS STOP IN POTTSVILLE TO EAT. NICE SMALL OLD TOWN. THE SUNOCO STATION HAD A NICE ECO 98 IN THE BAY, BUT OF COURSE IT WAS NOT FOR SALE. FRANK

Steve, you're our "eyes in the sky"! I better be careful what I do outside. Cool pics and can't believe how close the buildings are to each other.


Have gas all the time

Go there and ask them if there is an attack you can look in!
