Star Junction Historic District
Star Junction Historic District, Historic district in Perry Township, Pennsylvania.
The Star Junction Historic District spans 100 acres, featuring 163 buildings that represent Pennsylvania coal mining community architecture from 1892 to 1918.

The district includes 130 two-story frame duplex houses for workers, along with special managers' residences known as Tony Row, churches, and commercial structures.
