This is where I have been living all of my life, and I’m in the same house I’ve been in too. Ever since my mother and father brought me home from the hospital, it was sorta like a happily ever after, but, I’m not that old yet! Ha! I hope anyone who goes here, can find a place [house] they like, and live there happily forever! :)

This is an old, quaint, beautiful little town that I went to when I was about 12 or so. I was actually attending a nerd camp nearby, and going into town was one of my elected activities for the day, so I didn’t get to see much of it. It was nice though, and I’ve wanted to go back and see if it is still as lovely as I remember.

born and grew up here (moved to Atown at 15) by 68skylark

Grew up to the smog and red-orange glow in the southern sky from the coke-works. (grew up a half mile from the minsi trail bridge) Planes shook the house every day on approach to the airport (in allentown)

Constant industrial noise and whistles.

Actually delivered parts to The Steel in 1995 during a summer job. Saw the last gasps of the beast.

Lots of stuff to do, but just seeing the remains of the giant that built the Great White Fleet, the GWB, the empire state, PA378, several golf courses in Bethlehem, helped design the World trade center (but didn’t get the bid) the GOLDENGATEBRIDGE, yup bethlehem DESIGNEDANDBUILT IT, and countless other projects, is worth the trip.

All that is gone, now, and Bethlehem is being reborn in the spirit of a college town.

The smog is slowly drifting away,

the lehigh river, which was once known as “flowing black lava” because is was so polluted, has gotten clean enough to support fish again and to swim in (as recently as 1980 it was too dirty to support all but the most hardy fish)

It is kinda sad that neighbor city Allentown wants to build a cable bridge across thier section of the Lehigh but can’t because it COSTSTOOMUCH….in other words the AREATHEBUILTTHEENTIRENATION…THATSACRIFICED IT’S COAL, OILANDVIRGINLUMBER TO FUELTHEINDUSTRIALREVOLUTION… can’t AFFORD a STEEL bridge (wtf?)

but the benefits of 2nd growth forest covering much of PA, the rivers cleaning up, and air you can actually breathe,

far outweighs those little negatives, doncha think :)
