Better Living, Better Lawn Care in Wilkes-Barre
Coal was discovered in the early 1800s, forming the basis for the growth of Wilkes-Barre Pennsylvania. Throughout the 1800s, hundreds of thousands of immigrants flocked to the city to work in the mines. Likewise, railroads and canals were built across the city to transport the coal. At its peak in the 1930s and ‘40s, Wilkes-Barre had a population of more than 86,000.
Today, the population stands around 41,000, and the 21st century has brought revitalization efforts to this historic city. The Riverfront Commons revitalization project opened the riverfront, and features an amphitheater for live performances and charity events. Perhaps best of all, the Downtown Riverfront Park system has more than 90 acres of open space along the east bank of the Susquehanna River.
Kirby Park is on the west bank of the Susquehanna River. The park host's the annual Cherry Blossom Festival on the last weekend of April, as well as the 4th of July Celebration. Kirby Park has a fitness trail, tennis courts, a running track, walking paths, softball fields, volleyball courts, a pond and lots more.
