Originally built in 1928 as the First National Bank of Carbondale, The Anthracite Center is one of the oldest and most iconic buildings on Main Street.

Inside the old bank is a revived space, rich in historic influence featuring cast stone, marble, and woodwork original to the building which we’ve lovingly preserved and restored, making us the perfect backdrop to your event.
