The Revloc mine was originally constructed by the Monroe Coal Company (aka Coleman & Weaver Company) in 1916-17. Later Revloc became Bethlehem Steel's Mine No. 32, to which this still extant sign attests.
These structures from the Revloc mine are still in existence. According to research by the HAER, the building on the right was the boiler house and office, and it was built in 1916. The
large red brick building in the left-center of the picture was the 1940s-era bathhouse.
The Revloc slate dump is being remined and reclaimed by the Ebensburg Power Company.
Some of the patch houses in Revloc were built of yellow block.
The four room miners' homes in other parts of the town are of wood frame construction and red brick construction.
These red brick company-built houses are even more spacious.

The sign on this building says "Revloc Public School," but it now appears to be an apartment building.
Bethlehem Mining (or BethEnergy) ended coal mining at Revloc in the 1980s.
