It became a post-office station the same year. The Penns Valley Banking Company was organized to do business at Centre Hall April 1, 1873. The village is located on the turnpike connecting Lewistown with Bellefonte and is well supplied with mountain water by the Centre Hall Water Company, incorporated June 30, 1858.

Linn for the the heirs of Mary P. Wilson and General James A. Beaver. The Borough was incorporated, including Centre Hall Station, by decree of Court September I2, 1885.
