"Former Centralia resident John Lokitus, Jr. cared for this bench for a long time. When it was damaged or stolen (as it was several times), he made sure it found its way home. He was one of two residents forced from their homes late last year. Only a handful of residents remain. Seeing this bench somewhere other than Centralia is bittersweet. At least it has a good home." -macwagen on Flickr All We Know, Bittersweet, Resident, Damaged, Jr, Home Goods, Bench

Centralia Mine Fire - The fire was started in a garbage dump over an open coal seam in May of 1962. The fire was reported and seemed to be quenched at the time, but actually continued underground. There are many additional versions of the original cause but the garbage pit and the date are probably right. Underground, The Originals, Garbage
