Kistler Borough
Kistler Borough, located in Mount Union, Pennsylvania, was established by the Mount Union Refractories Company to provide housing for its workers. Designed as a model company town by renowned town planner John Nolen and the architectural firm Mann and MacNeill, Kistler aimed to create an uplifting environment for its residents.
The town features a unique triangular layout, bounded by the Pennsylvania Railroad and the Juniata River, with original clapboard and shingle-clad houses still intact. Although many public buildings were planned, only a combination store, school, and residences were constructed, reflecting the community's historical charm and architectural significance.
