In 1798, Valentine Cunningham and his family from Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania settled along Wolf Creek, building a gristmill with fellow American Revolutionary War veteran and settler Robert Glenn on the creek in 1799 and naming the area Pine Grove.

and Charles returned to Pine Grove to continue its expansion, formally laying it out around this time.

[7][8] By the 1850s, a Wolf Creek post office had been formed to serve both communities as they became increasingly merged.

Around the same time, large coal deposits were discovered in the area, kickstarting a mining industry.

Grove City is home to two locomotive engine production plants for GE Transportation, which was recently purchased by Wabtec.

Now lovingly restored, the Guthrie has been converted into an entertainment destination with live theatre, musical acts, comedy shows, movies, food hall and a full service bar.
