Why Live in Downtown Bethlehem

Downtown Bethlehem is a vibrant neighborhood with a rich history rooted in the steel industry. The former Bethlehem Steel plant has been transformed into an entertainment venue, hosting music concerts and festivals. Known as “Fest-lehem,” the area is celebrated for its numerous events and highly walkable streets lined with restaurants, shops, and two universities. Main Street and Broad Street are central hubs, featuring popular dining spots like Apollo Grill and unique shops such as Donegal Square and Cigar International Store. The Moravian Book Shop, the world’s oldest continuously operating bookstore, adds to the neighborhood's charm. Residents enjoy easy access to groceries at C-Town Supermarket on East Third Street. The northern part of downtown is characterized by Craftsman-style homes and Cape Cods, offering a quieter, leafier environment with more yard space. In contrast, the historic district features well-maintained Colonial Revivals and colorful Victorians, with strict building codes ensuring architectural consistency. The community frequently gathers at SteelStacks for events like Peepsfest and Christkindlmarkt. Outdoor enthusiasts can explore Sand Island Park’s trails, playground, and sports courts, or visit Payrow Plaza for scenic city views. The neighborhood is safer than the national average, adding to its appeal. Downtown Bethlehem is home to Moravian University and Lehigh University, both prestigious institutions.
