Notes
  • Significance: Everett was selected as a headquarters for maintenance, engineering, and fare collection for the Pennsylvania Turnpike because of its central location on the original turnpike between Irwin and Carlisle. It was the only building on the turnpike built to Pennsylvania Department of Highways plans rather than to standards drawn up by the new turnpike design team.
  • Survey number: HAER PA-355
  • Building/structure dates: 1938- 1949 Initial Construction
  • Building/structure dates: 1969 Subsequent Work
