[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We stayed at the chain hotel down the road a bit but came in for dinner and breakfast to the Downtown, which has definitely seen better days. DC did not love how the college seemed to flow right into the kind of downtrodden downtown area. [/quote]

This thread is so interesting to me as far as how different people perceive the same place. I didn’t get “downtrodden” at all. Thought it was a charming little city. To each their own, I guess.

At the same time, it’s right in the Allentown song lyrics:

“And they're closing all the factories down
Out in Bethlehem they're killing time
Filling out forms
Standing in line…”[/quote]

I grew up in the area, so admittedly my view is skewed.  It was a very boring place to be a teenager, but at least Lehigh has its own scene…far more than Lafayette or other local schools.  A bit more happening with minor league baseball and hockey close by, but not much different.

It’s a great place for empty nesters to spend a weekend around the holidays.[/quote]
