Pittston has indeed seen MANY brighter days in its past, but this new street scape project is REALLY encouraging a lot of new growth and home renovations near Main Street that I hope will spread.

I'm sure there's a lot more wrong with Pittston than the street lights being too bright. Maybe some people just won't admit it.

Oddly enough even though there are nearly 50,000 people who live in the Greater Pittston area, I'm apparently one of the only ones (besides A_D_M) who regularly posts here.

Maybe they need someone to rattle their cages so they won't be so complacent all of their lives.

they dont post here cause pittstonians do not interact with strangers---even in church they dont shake hands during the peace greeting unless they know who you are(in all my years of attending mass its the first time i EVER saw or heard of that!)
