Park Place
PARK PLACE – A massive mine subsidence swallowed an in-ground pool in this Mahanoy Township village not far from where another subsidence in 2016 nearly claimed the home.
The 75-foot by 45-foot hole opened up around midnight at the Quick residence at 267 Park Place Road.
Tracey Quick said the sound of the cave-in was akin to “a bad thunderstorm.”
No one was hurt, but the family’s in-ground pool is completely gone and the subsidence encroached on a shed early Monday morning.
