Erie, the county seat of
Neosho [NO] County,
is on highway US59 near the Neosho River.
Downtown Erie
has some nice old buildings and a pleasant park.
Stop for
a malt at the soda fountain in the drug store.
Down the
street, the sign on the front of the Erie Record proudly
boasts "Since 1876".
Erie is unusual in that the city can generate electricity for the town's needs and still be able to sell large amounts to commercial utilities. The city is also rebuilding its infrastructure to prepare for the new century. |
