Remembering the Franklin Building

On June 4, 2026, with great sadness, I witnessed the closing of an educational landmark, the Franklin Building located in Northampton’s third ward. For the last time students boarded buses, walked home or were picked up by their parents. Future students and teachers will be transferred to other buildings for the next school year. The Franklin Building is now a chapter in local history.

The Franklin Building is located on the southeast corner of 9th and Lincoln Avenue. When the building was constructed, the area was known as Stemton. The first building was named in honor of George Stem. Mr. Stem operated the Lehigh Car Manufacturing Company, which manufactured spring wagons and later railroad cars. The factory was located on Main Street between 8th and 10th streets and was erected in 1867.

The Stemton two-room brick schoolhouse was demolished as more room was required for a growing community. The Franklin Building was constructed in 1907 and opened in 1908 to replace the Stemton School. The cost was amazingly $32,429. This writer’s family will especially miss our neighborhood school. My mother-in-law, wife, daughter

and grandson attended the school and received a fine education from the dedicated teaching staff. The neighborhood has changed over the years, but older residents still remember the tolling of the school bell at 8:15 a.m., summoning the students to class, and the 8:30 a.m. bell, telling the students they were late. The daily sound of the ringing bell, happy students, dedicated teachers and staff are gone forever. They have become a cherished memory of the past.

Allen Township residents voice Concerns over data centers

By KERI LINDENMUTH

Allen Township residents packed the Allen Township Municipal Building during the July 14 Board of Supervisors meeting. While no data center was on the agenda that evening, residents took the opportunity to ask questions and voice their concerns about data centers, as neighboring communities continue to grapple with developers over the construction of these new facilities in the age of AI.

In March, a one-million-squarefoot data center was approved at an existing warehouse at 2500 Liberty Drive in the township. The warehouse, owned by Prologis Lehigh Valley, was approved in 2016 and constructed in 2023. Prologis requested a change of use for the building from

a traditional warehouse to one that would provide "wholesale storage of electronic information," a use permitted in the property's industrial zoning district.

With data centers on the agenda in multiple neighboring municipalities, residents used the public forum to share concerns about water usage, electricity rates and noise pollution.

Resident Marc Steinberg asked supervisors whether electricity rates would increase.

The township does not have control over what utility providers such as PPL charge, Supervisor Paul Link explained. However, in March, Prologis told supervisors it had already begun discussions with PPL, with the utility confirming that sufficient capacity

is available to power the building. A high-voltage line already serves the property, and electricity will be routed to a private substation that Prologis will build and maintain for the life of the building.

Steinberg also asked whether well water would be affected by the water needed to cool the data processing equipment. Link explained that, as discussed during the March meeting, the equipment will be cooled using a "closed loop" system in which water is continuously recycled.

Resident Kevin Klepeisz asked about the low-frequency noise the building could generate and its potential health effects.

Lehigh Township to hire new Sergeant, refresh signage at parks

By LAURA KLOTZ

The Lehigh Township Board of Supervisors spent much of their July 14 meeting on proposed updates to the signage at township parks.

Prior to the meeting, they held an executive session to interview candidates for the position of sergeant on the police force. Chief John Henry was authorized to extend an offer of employment to their chosen applicant.

Brad Rock of Lehigh Engineering appeared before the board to represent Kristopher and Samantha Pastier, who were requesting approval of their plan for a lot line adjustment. He explained

that Kristopher Pastier and his father own the lots in question, and the current property line crosses through the driveway, so they are seeking to move the property line north to correct this issue. Township Engineer Michael Muffley confirmed that the Planning Commission has reviewed the request and recommended approval, conditional to some housekeeping issues. Supervisors agreed to grant this conditional approval and also granted a waiver regarding a required title report.

The owner of the Wasko selfstorage project requested a sixmonth extension of time for plan

recording. Due to an unexpected increase in construction costs, the project was paused, and the owner is currently looking for someone to buy the project outright or to enter into a into partnership. The security posting will cost one million dollars, which is not an expense the owner is prepared

MEGAN PILDIS

This August, the National Museum of Industrial History proudly celebrates its 10th anniversary, marking a decade of preserving America’s industrial heri-

tage, educating future innovators and strengthening community connections through history.

Since opening its doors to the public in August 2016, NMIH has welcomed visitors from across the United States and around the world to explore the stories, inventions and people that transformed America through industry. What began as a vision to preserve the nation’s industrial legacy has grown into a vibrant cultural destination serving families, students, educators, history enthusiasts and lifelong learners through exhibits, educational programming, public events and community partnerships.

“Our first 10 years have been about building a museum that honors the ingenuity, determination and resilience that shaped America,” said Andria Zaia, president and CEO of the National Museum of Industrial History. “Every visitor, volunteer, member, donor, educator and community partner has played an important role in that journey. As we celebrate this milestone, we’re also looking ahead to an exciting future that will allow us to share even more stories and inspire the next generation of innovators.”

Over the past decade, the Museum has continued to grow both its campus and its impact. Major milestones include:

• 2016 – Opening the National Museum of Industrial History to the public.

• 2020 – Creating Foundry Park, a 17,000-square-foot outdoor exhibit and community space showcasing large-scale industrial artifacts and live demonstrations.

• 2020 – Relocating the historic Steelworkers’ Veterans Memorial to the museum plaza, pre-

serving an important tribute to veterans who worked in America’s steel industry.

• 2022 – Adding the Air Products Pavilion, expanding opportunities for educational programming, demonstrations, performances and community events.

• 2026 – Completing construction of the museum’s previously undeveloped second floor as part of the transformational Next Level: Raising Industrial History to New Heights capital campaign.

Once completed, the Next Level expansion project will nearly double exhibit space while adding flexible programming and event space, as well as immersive new exhibitions that broaden the stories of American innovation. The expanded second floor is scheduled to open fully to the public in 2027, ushering in the next chapter of the museum’s history.

“There is perhaps no more fitting place for this museum than Bethlehem,” said NMIH Board Chair Ken Rampolla. “The history of this city is intertwined with the history of American industry. The workers, engineers, entrepreneurs and families who shaped this community helped forge the steel, products, technologies and innovations that transformed America.”

Celebrating with the community

To thank the community for 10 years of support, the National Museum of Industrial History will host a half-off admission day on Wednesday, Aug. 5, inviting visitors of all ages to experience

Carson as Director of The Gracedale

Continuum of Care

Submitted by KELLY PRENTICE

Northampton County Council voted to approve the appointment of Thomas Carson as director of Gracedale Continuum of Care, the new county department created by County Executive Tara Zrinski and Northampton County Council.

Carson is an executive leader with over 10 years of experience overseeing complex, highly regulated human service operations in partnership with county, state and federal systems. As executive director of Victory House of the Lehigh Valley, he has proven his ability to stabilize staff, strengthen compliance and guide organizations through periods of staffing strain, public scrutiny and operational transition within publicly funded environments.

“Mr. Carson’s expertise in crisis management and leadership during periods of staffing and service pressure at Victory House over the past five years will prove to be an asset at Gracedale,” said County Executive Zrinski. “His experience raising funds, managing publicly funded programs, multimillion-dollar budgets and cross-sector initiatives involving veterans and healthcare, behavioral health and housing will bolster the planning for the entire Continuum of Care—to deliver services to our most vulnerable citizens.”

Recognized for steady, solutions-oriented leadership and the ability to bring structure and accountability to mission-critical community services, Carson is known as a trusted partner to public-sector leadership in navigating high-visibility operational challenges while maintaining service quality and staff engagement.

Carson has led Victory House’s compliance with county, state and federal funding require-

ments, ensuring audit readiness and program integrity. He has also led Victory House’s organizational compliance and quality assurance strategy, and the organization has passed its VA, federal, state and county monitoring reviews and inspections, maintaining full regulatory standing. As associate director in prior years, he managed county-funded workforce and housing initiatives serving vulnerable populations and veterans.

Carson plans to start in the newly created role on Aug. 17.

NCC Signs New Transfer Agreement

Submitted by

MIA ROSSI-MARINO

Northampton Community College students pursuing Associate of Arts in psychology or Associate in Applied Science in counseling psychology can seamlessly transfer into Webster University’s psychology programs under a new articulation agreement between the two institutions.

Under the agreement, all psychology coursework completed at NCC will be applied to Webster psychology degrees, so college credit can be applied to the baccalaureate degree. Webster’s psychology programs can also be completed fully online to suit their schedule, location and needs. Students can complete their entire psychology degree from the comfort of their homes and on their timeline, giving them the flexibility to pursue their educational goals in a manner that best meets their needs.

NCC is the first institution from the Northeast to partner with Webster University.

Under the new agreement, Northampton students pursuing associate degrees in psychology or applied science in counseling can transfer into the following programs at Webster:

• Bachelor of Arts in psychology

• Bachelor of Arts in psychology with emphasis in mental health

• Bachelor of Arts in psychology with emphasis in mental health + Master of Arts in counseling

• Bachelor of Science in psychological science

With Network for Enrollment and Transfer, students transferring from a community college that has an articulation agreement with Webster could receive up to $1,000 that would be applied to a student’s annual tuition costs. The scholarships are renewable annually. To qualify, students must maintain a minimum grade point average of 2.5 and remain in good academic standing. In addition, transfer students can automatically qualify for numerous academic merit awards ranging from $11,000 to $17,000 annually.

Transfer students also receive other benefits, such as opportunities to study abroad at one of

Webster’s campuses in Europe or Asia, or to study at one of the dozens of other campuses around the world that have joined the Webster International Network of Schools.

Freeman Announces $9.75 million

For Easton-

Area projects

Submitted by TOM ANDREWS

State Rep. Bob Freeman today announced that $9.75 million in state grant funding was awarded to help build a new police station in Palmer Township, as well as new community facilities and continued redevelopment projects in Easton.

“My staff and I are always looking for ways to help local municipalities improve facilities and infrastructure, and we strive to encourage economic development throughout the district. By working with the administration of Gov. Josh Shapiro and my legislative colleagues, I was able to help secure this funding that will lead to important upgrades, new jobs and business opportunities for Easton and Palmer Township,” said Freeman, DNorthampton.

Palmer Township will use its $1.5 million grant to construct a new police station with visitor parking, perimeter fencing, covered fleet parking, a sally port and evidence garage.

The Greater Community Development Corp. was awarded $5 million to build the new Greater Community Empowerment Center, a new community facility in Easton that will house a gymnasium, health and wellness area, child care facility, a counseling center that will be used to address mental health needs and classrooms that will provide job training services to help people with employment opportunities.

ProJeCt of Easton Inc. is using a $2 million grant to renovate a building at Easton and Berwick Streets to transform it into a state-of-the-art educational facility. Planned upgrades include an industrial elevator, modernized mechanical systems, energy-efficient windows that preserve the building's historic stained glass, a fire sprinkler system and new electrical and plumbing systems. Additional features include new doors, custom carpentry and millwork, a fortified building envelope and secure entry points.

Black Canyon LLC was awarded $750,000 to redevelop an existing warehouse on Bushkill Street in Easton, which will preserve and enhance the industrial facility. RACP funds will be used to complete critical construction and modernization and will include buildout of second-floor office space, major upgrades to existing warehouse, installation of climate-control systems, warehouse partitions and replacing

truck loading docks. Foundry Development Group LLC will use its $500,000 grant for “The Foundry” at Easton, a mixed-use community with commercial space and parking on the buildings' first floors, residential units on the upper floors and unique architecture focused on environmental sustainability. The funding was acquired through the Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program, a state grant program for the design, acquisition and construction of regional economic, cultural, civic, recreational and historical improvement projects. RACP projects have a regional impact and generate substantial increases or maintain levels of employment, tax revenues or other measures of economic activity. RACP projects are state-funded projects that cannot obtain primary funding under other state programs.

Northampton Borough questions

The future of the borough’s Board of Health

By KERI LINDENMUTH

During its meeting on Thursday, July 16, Northampton Borough Council discussed whether to dissolve the borough's Board of Health.

Composed of five members and a health officer, the Board of Health administers and enforces the borough's health laws and related ordinances, issuing permits, certificates and conducting health inspections.

Resident and Vice Chair of the Board of Health Irene Urban spoke in support of the board.

“It’s really a service to our community. Anybody who needs information about health, about maybe starting a business or just general information about health is able to call our health officer.”

Urban said Health Officer

Theodore Veresink conducts more than 50 inspections each year while providing guidance and support to business owners as they navigate the health inspection process.

The Northampton Board of Health has served the borough since 1912, guiding the community through public health

“I do recommend that you have a discussion with the Board of Health and that everyone potentially involved in this decision, or affected by a decision in this matter, have

challenges, including the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic.

However, as municipalities have grown, few continue to maintain their own boards of health.

According to research by Councilwoman Bonnie Almond, who also serves on the Fire & Health Committee, only six counties and four municipalities in Pennsylvania maintain their own health departments. The Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture and the Pennsylvania Department of Health have largely assumed the duties of municipal health boards at no cost to local governments.

“The thought of abolishing the borough’s Board of Health was carefully and thoroughly researched after the health officer, Ted Veresink, informed the borough of his intention to retire later this year,” said Almond.

“State health inspections provide better uniformity, stronger resources for outbreaks, dedicated funding and stricter enforcement. Any liability will be the responsibility of the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture and the Pennsylvania Department of Health. The state has larger teams, better access to legal resources for closing down noncompliant businesses and centralized public restaurant inspection results,” she continued.

“The review of the financials proves Northampton’s Board of Health had a $25,400 loss of revenue in the last four years. This includes salaries paid to board members who should not have received compensation,” Almond added.

“Ask yourself, as a borough resident and a taxpayer, why the borough should continue to lose money when health services would be provided by the state at no cost to the borough.”

“The board has been in effect since 1912, so how much money have we been losing?” asked Council President Julia Kutzler.

Although a motion was made to officially dissolve the Board of Health, Solicitor Stephanie Steward encouraged council members and the Board of Health to meet as a committee or during a public meeting before making a formal decision.

all the information that they need,” she said.

The next Northampton Borough Council meeting will be held at 7 p.m. on Thursday, July 30, at 1401 Laubach Ave.

In May, the township contracted with Lewis S. Goodfriend & Associates to conduct acoustical evaluations of the property to ensure it remains in compliance with township noise ordinances.

The township is currently working on a zoning ordinance that would establish a Data Center Overlay District in the Liberty Drive area. Supervisors said the ordinance addresses many of the concerns residents expressed. The ordinance was approved for advertisement in May and will be the subject of a public hearing on Aug. 11.

"These were all serious things that were brought up as concerns," said Supervisor Sean Sculley. According to Township Manager Ilene Eckhart, the Lehigh Valley Planning Commission said the ordinance is very thorough in its regulations.

There are three warehouses in the proposed Data Center Overlay District: the Prologis warehouse and two traditional warehouses that already have tenants. No other areas in the township will be zoned for this use.

Supervisors stressed that they are just as concerned about the proliferation of data centers as residents but said approving the Prologis warehouse in the spring was a legal matter, as there was no specific data center use at the time. Under the Pennsylvania Municipalities Planning Code, municipalities must provide for all legitimate land uses somewhere within their zoning ordinances.

“We are not any happier than any of you,” said Link. “But we cannot just say no. [We cannot] get into a lawsuit over something we can never win.”

“What we can do,” added Sculley, “[is] mitigate it as much as we can.”

The July 28 Board of Supervisors meeting has been canceled. The next Allen Township Board of Supervisors meeting will be held on Tuesday, Aug. 11 at 6 p.m. at the Allen Township Municipal Building, located at 50 Snow Hill Road.

The SouthSide Arts District is unveiling its latest community enhancement project, the ARTstop, an interactive installation designed to encourage visitors to explore Bethlehem's arts and cultural attractions.

Led by the SouthSide Arts District's Design Committee, the project transformed a decommissioned LANTA bus stop into a creative wayfinding solution that celebrates the neighborhood's creative identity while connecting visitors with its creative sector.

One side of the ARTstop displays a high-contrast illustrated map, which highlights the area’s key attractions and landmarks. QR codes are spread throughout the installation, instantly linking visitors to SouthSide’s galleries, music and performance venues, as well as public resources such as the Bethlehem Area Public Library’s SouthSide Branch. The reverse side of the fixture (to be installed at a later date) will serve as the district’s bulletin board and showcase upcoming festivals, events and promotions from local businesses and organizations.

Located at 3 E. Fourth St., ARTstop occupies one of the SouthSide Arts District's busiest pedestrian intersections, just steps from the nationally recognized music venue Godfrey Daniels and several popular restaurants.

"Thousands of people come here every year to enjoy our food, music and festivals, but the Arts are part of everyday life for our SouthSide residents," said Katy Knibbs, assistant manager of the SouthSide Arts District. "ARTstop gives us a new way to spotlight our creatives and encourage folks to explore our arts scene.”

Easton-based artist Danny Finnochio, known for his signature illustrative and playful style, was commissioned to create the

"The approach for the illustration was to create a stacked map so that each entity/building could be celebrated on an equal footing, all the while imbuing the piece with an inviting, energetic color palette that would grab a phonescrolling pedestrian's attention on the street," Finocchio shared in an Instagram post.

Community members are invited to meet Finnochio and celebrate the project's completion during the official ribbon-cutting ceremony on Thursday, July 30, at 11:30 a.m. The ceremony will be followed by a casual luncheon reception at the newly opened Uno Taqueria, located at 15 E. Fourth St., Bethlehem, PA 18015. The event is open for all to attend.

The ARTstop project was made possible through a Main Street grant from the Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce Foundation.

tures of the existing signs, then compared them with the relevant ordinance. She discovered that the signs are not fully compliant with the ordinance, so she drafted some new designs to correct this. A discussion was held concerning the park hours of operations and whether pets may be permitted at parks other than the dog park at Delps. It was agreed that the hours specified in the ordinance do not satisfy the needs of residents, and should be modified to allow people in the parks from sunrise until 11 p.m. It was also agreed that all of the parks will allow pets as long as they are on leashes. Rehrig will draft the ordinance changes and new signs to bring everything into agreement.

Supervisor Gerald Pritchard proposed adding the words “Lehigh Township” to the park fences. He acquired a quote from Scribbles & Drips for $1,498, and they assured him that they could have the lettering completed in time for National Night Out. Each letter will be painted on metal sheets measuring eight feet by four feet, which would be riveted to the fence. After some discussion, the board agreed to approve the contract.

Public Works Director Frank Zamadics said the crew is moving forward with the oil and chip projects and are working on smaller repairs around the township. The crew was commended for their work on Municipal Drive.

Zoning Officer Roxann Colfer announced that the Zoning Hearing Board won their recent appeal in the Court of Common Pleas. They have discussed the noise ordinance, which is being advertised for public comment. The construction at Becky’s Drive-In is currently paused, as Colfer and Muffley are working with the owners to ensure all required permits are in place.

In other news, Chief Henry reported 426 calls in the month of June, including five reportable crashes, one DUI crash and two people processed through booking. Additionally, the board accepted the resignation of Officer Christopher Molchan and the department will begin background checks on a candidate for a vacancy on the staff. National Night Out is set for August 4 at Bryfogle Park.

Fire Commissioner Richard Hildebrand apologized for the fact that the department’s reporting system is still being repaired, so he was unable to provide a written quarterly report. However, he was able to share some statistics, and noted that the department has responded to 44 dwelling fires thus far in 2026, as well as 28 medical assists. They have made 263 runs in total, which he says is roughly on par with last year’s numbers.

Following public comment, the board adjourned for another executive session.
