The Sherrick
House was built circa
1800. It is
believed to be the oldest house in the area. The house is located
on Painter Street Extension.
Buck’s Snack Bar was the place to go from the 1940's until it closed in the 1970's. Today it is owned and operated by Mike & Lois Banaszak with the new name “The Sunshine Cafe.” Much memorabilia remains from the early days.
Dr. Milton A. Noon's Spring House is located on Graff Street. Dr. Noon was Everson's physician from 1898 until his death in 1961. When Dr. Noon built the Spring House his interest in Native American culture was incorporated in the stone work; some stones are shaped like arrowheads. He used the spring house as a place to get away to read and relax.
The Everson Playground will be renamed “Everson Centennial Park” during a dedication ceremony to be held on July 18 at 6:00 PM. A permanent marker, donated by former Everson resident Marion Sandzimier, will be placed in the Park.

St. Joseph's Roman Catholic Church was built
for Everson’s
large Polish community. It was dedicated on 14 May 1893. Built in Prussian
Gothic style, it
resembles many churches in Poland. Father Robert Washko is current Pastor.
St. Joseph's is located on the corner of Vance & Painter Streets.
