Kolter Drive Now "Gilbert Zilner Boulevard"

On October 20, 2023, White Township (home of our corporate HQ) displayed signs of appreciation for our late co-founder Gilbert "Gib" Zilner with the ceremonial renaming of Kolter Drive to "Gilbert Zilner Boulevard".

Nobody spent more time on Kolter Drive over the past 28 years than Gib. And with Diamond's corporate headquarters the most prominent real estate along the road, it was beyond fitting to permanently link Kolter Drive with the man who loved his business dearly and spent over 50 years building it into the commercial and community institution it is today.

Diamond President and CEO Mark Zilner delivered remarks during a sign unveiling ceremony, along with PA Sen. Joe Pittman (R-41), and White Township supervisors George Lenz and Gail McCauley. Several members of the Zilner family (including Diamond co-founder Joan Zilner) were also in attendance, along with White Township staff.
