SHICKSHINNY, Pa. After years of planning and applying for grants and a delay in construction because of the pandemic, a new museum in Luzerne County is just about finished and will soon be open to the public.
The last time Newswatch 16 was at the FLT Building in Shickshinny, construction was just getting underway. About ten months later, the project is nearly complete, and the second floor of the building is now a museum. People want to continue to give us things, and I m glad that they have preserved them because so many times, they pass away, their house gets cleaned out, and everything gets thrown in the dumpster. Then it s lost forever; it s never replaced, James Bach explained.
