I moved from Bethlehem over 25 years ago and still miss it. The McDonalds at “5 Points” looks different but “Ye Old Ale House” looks the same. I used to walk up that hill without a second thought. Sheesh, I’d be huffing and puffing it now! I miss the row homes. We don’t have them where I live now. That cemetery you drove by has some interesting graves. I don’t recall the names anymore but I believe some bigwigs from Bethlehem Steel are buried there. Thanks for the upload.
Quiet in peaceful .I've been living here in Bethlehem for 7 years .My kids all graduated here,from high school in college.Born in raised in NYC, ain't going back to live.
Good video. Thanks for sharing. Bethlehem was a steel making not mining town. :) This video covers a very small part of the City of Bethlehem and Fountain hill PA. Although I did enjoy it. Video starts on RT 309 Center Valley then RT 378 entering Bethlehem. proceeds down 4th st. on the South side of town. 4th st. runs parallel to Lehigh University 2 blocks to the right. Video then shows the very "East" end of 3rd St. at the casino which was built on Bethlehem steel property. The Casino now Wind Creek, Sign, is mounted the what was a crane used to load and unload train cars at the steel yard. the rest of 3rd st is mostly small business district. There are some bars and a few restaurants and the Social Still Distillary. Then the video proceeds to the far West end of 3rd st. and right into Fountain hill. The bigger older houses are 1 block from St. Luke's Hospital. and the rest of the video in is Fountainhill. 3rd St. has three separate bridges that all cross over to the North side of of town and the historic district which has many marked historic buildings and also the Famous Bethlehem hotel, which is on Main st. in the historic district. Main St. is filled with shops and food establishments as well as 2 breweries, a day could be spent there just strolling around. The North side of town is also home to Moravian College. The Moravian history is what makes up the historic district for the most part. Bethlehem steel came along later and Bethlehem grew to almost the size it is today because of the steel.
Lived in Fountain hill a borough in Bethlehem for 15 yrs!! Loved it! Moved to Florida in 2016...miss it...thanks for the drive was good to be back for a few minutes
On a road trip from North Carolina to the Northeast I spent a day and a half in Bethlehem and was genuinely struck by its unique feel a sense of history.
Dince Trisma Abanat I’m complete opposite!! I moved there April 17, 2017 and from donegan elementary fifth grade, I moved on to broughal middle school for 6 and first week of 7th and got bullied for being Asian !! I’m so glad I’m back in Chicago rn
I studied at Lehigh back in 1987 for one year and rented apartment above Subway on east 4th Street...Gosh, the Subway 3:44 is still at the same place after all these years..
@@victorgaeta6436 It's different. Grew up there but spent a lot of time for my job near Arlington (Fossil Creek/Ft. Worth). It certainly is different. You may hate the winters but you will love the summers.
My great grandfather started working at the steel mill in 1901, followed by my grandfather, father, uncles and cousins. I also worked in steel mills, but not Bethlehem Steel, the 4th generation in our family. My grandfather worked in its iron foundry where the shell plates were cast for the Holland and Lincoln tunnels that carry thousands of cars and trucks into NYC every day.
My home town! I'm disappointed that you drove to Bethlehem and didn't show any of the Bethlehem Steel plant (aside from the ore bridge, which you didn't turn your camera properly to capture)! Next time drive past the blast furnaces-especially at night, when they are lit up with colored lights. And drive across the Hill-to-Hill Bridge (as your GPS was trying to get you to do) to capture the historic downtown on the north side, with its 18th century stone Moravian buildings. Much more picturesque over there.
@@stixnfeet7818 If I filmed a ferry ride through New York Harbor and didn't show the Statue of Liberty, wouldn't you think that was odd? The blast furnaces are to Bethlehem what the Statue of Liberty is to New York City.
@@JeffreySmith7777 I'm not advocating for globalization, just the opposite. When the feudalistic corporate overlords make a decree all I can do is point it out.
@@Nix_Pardus, doesn't bother me at all. I'm on disability for years. The only epidemic in America is stupidity. Some Americans actually think some automobiles are still manufactured in America. Not a one is. They are all assembled in America. As for retirement, good luck with Burger King and McDonald's. Enjoy!
And most of the casino jobs are low pay with tips. The idea was that the casino would bring tourists to town, but nothing was ever built near it. There is some nice development at the downtown end of the mill by the blast furnaces, with a music arena and restaurants and hotels.
"the houses are on top of each other"... I take it you ain't from there. I'm guessing somewhere up the main line or Bucks county? 1st, that was 1/2 the town. Should've crossed the center st. bridge, made a left on church st and a right on main and kept driving. Yea, Bethlehem was a steel town and all those houses were for the workers. Crappy town? Its paradise compared to Inwood or Brownsville or the Bronx. For folks watching this, its 1/2 assed. Don't judge the town just on this video.
I don't know if anybody said this already. But it would be interesting if a couple named Mary and Joseph had a baby. They would have to name him Jesus Christ. The media would go nuts, and say we finally know when Jesus was born.
@@RB01.10 you're a typical impatient Jersian behind the wheel. Grew up in the LV, lived in Jersey for 15 years. I was really surprised at the impatient drivers in the New Providence/Summit area. Ah well, the LV is getting there. Hooray for society.
This is the city where the steel cane from to build the Golden Gate Bridge. Frederic Abberline who Johnny Depp played in "From Hell" enlisted in the London Police on January 5, 1863. 106 years later Led Zeppelin and the Grateful Dead were performing in San Francisco the night the Antichrist Marilyn Manson was born January 5, 1969. On Manson's 13th birthday 18,000 landslides occurred in San Francisco that killed 33 and it also coincided with the exact 49th anniversary of the start of the Golden Gate Bridge. On January 5, 2018 Manson turned 49 and the Kodovar volcano erupted for the first time in recorded history. Enoch who talked of the end of days lived on Earth for 365 days, the height of Kodovar is exactly 365 meters. Philadelphia is one of the 7 churches of Revelation. The Eagles won there first Superbowl in 2018. Philly to Canton Ohio is 333 miles as the crow flies. Canton is where Manson was born. Canton is the birthplace of the NFL and is where the football Hall of Fame is located. Canton to Chicago is 333 miles as the crow flies. This line of wisdom adds up to 666 the number of the beast. The number of the beast has been calculated. Chicago is where Anton Lavey published the satanic Bible the same year Manson was born. They became friends after first meeting at the "Black house" in San Francisco where Anton founded the church of Satan. Alcatraz is named the Rock which stands for Peter the Rock Jesus's best friend. When the Birdman of Alcatraz died he was buried in Metropolis Illinois, Superman's hometown. The steel used to build the Golden Gate is Bethlehem Steel from Bethlehem Pennsylvania named after Jesus's hometown. Metropolis is 333 miles as the crow flies from Ft. Wayne my hometown. In the 1962 movie "the Birdman of Alcatraz" the first bird he saves is a sparrow which he names Jack. In Pirates of the Caribbean Johny Depp plays Captain Jack Sparrow. Birdman the movie was originally written to involve Johnny Depp. Depp is best friends with Marilyn Manson who In 1996 said "Hopefully I will be remembered for the one who brought an end to Christianity." That same year he released "Antichrist Superstar." I was born on January 27, 1980 and the Birdman was born on January 28, 1890. I was born 6 minutes before midnight. On January 28, 1986 the space shuttle Challenger exploded killing all 7 on board including a school teacher named Christa. Every ten years since that accident people who has had a very significant impact on the world have died and they are all connected by a bird, a plane, and Superman. On the first 10 year anniversary Jerry Siegal the creator of Superman died on January 28, 1996. This would have been the Birdmans 106th Birthday, a man who was buried in Metropolis 33 years earlier.10 years later Rabbi Yitskah Kaduri died at age 106 on January 28, 2006. Rabbi Kaduri had the largest funeral in Israel's history and is known for writing a letter which was opened a year after his death which states Jesus is the true Messiah. Ten years later Signe Toly and Paul Kantner of Jefferson Airplane from San Francisco died on January 28, 2016. On the 5 year anniversary of the death of the Rabbi an Angel appeared over the Dome of Rock on January 28, 2011. George Reeves who was the only Superman to be killed was born on January 5 as well which coincides with National bird day. In Revelation it talks about how birds will devour the antichrist and his armies during the Apocalypse. Alfred Hitchcock's movie "The Birds" was filmed in San Francisco and was released in 1962 the same year the movie "the birdman of Alcatraz"was released and is also the same year the Birdman died. Sir Henry Stanley is the person who inspired the book "Heart of Darkness." That book then became the inspiration for Stanley Kubrick's movie "Apocalypse Now." Henry Stanley was born on January 28, 1841, exactly 49 years before the Birdman. The Birdman was originally sent to Alcatraz for stabbing a guard through the heart. In 1996 I became paralyzed the first time I heard the song "Beautiful People." In 2001 a demons voice guided me to Mansons autobiography "The Long Hard Road out Of Hell." In 2003 Carmelo Anthony led the Syracuse Orangemen to their first NCAA title in 2003 over Kansas. The next morning after that game I walked the yellow brick road in real life after almost drowning where the St. Joseph and St. Marys rivers meet in Ft. Wayne to form the Miami river. The first person I met at St. Joe was a man named OZ. OZ had a branding on his forearm that had the "Echo" logo on it. The Rhinoceros logo was the same size and shape of the logo on the side of the reddish orange Echo shoes I was given earlier that day by my friend Scot after I got out of the river barefoot. "the Dark side of the Rainbow" is a story about how Pink Floyds Darkside of the moon syncs up with the Wizard of Oz. This story originated with a 1995 Journal Gazette article in Ft Wayne the same city I walked the yellow brick road in 8 years later. 2003 was also the same year I got arrested for climbing the Anthony Wayne building on St. Pat's. It was an Orange year in 2003. The Ft. Wayne Komets, the Buccaneers, and the Orangemen all won that year. My stepdad Joseph owned a motorcycle shop which was orange as well as all of his drag bikes. The Wizard of OZ is a story about the defeat of the antichrist. The water making the Witch melt is a sign of baptism. All of the teams in Fort Wayne are named after the Wizard of OZ. The Tin Caps are the baseball team which would be The Tin Woodsman. Before they were the Tin caps they were the Wizards. Johnny Appleseed is the original Tin woodsman who is buried in Ft. Wayne. The Komet hockey team used to be the Choppers. Nick Chopper is the Tin Man's name in the book the wizard of Oz.The Ft. Wayne Mad Ants would be the "Aunty M's." In "Return to Oz" Dorothy is sent to the psyche ward. The Doctor tries to give her a shock treatment then lighting knocks the power out. Dorothy escapes out of a window and gets swept away by a river which takes her back to OZ. In 2003 I got swept away by a river where I ended up meeting OZ. The Doctor then tried to give me a shock treatment. I tried to escape out of a window as well. I haven't aged a day since the river incident in 2003 when I was 23. My mothers first tattoo was Peter Pan on her neck yet she still doesn't know that's who her son is. I used to rap as Reaces Peace's and Marshall Mathers rapped as Eminem. Eminem was born in St. Joseph Missouri and I was born at St. Joseph Hospital. We are both left handed and have blue eyes. Eminems middle name is Bruce and he grew up in Wayne county. Batman is Bruce Wayne and Batman was actually named after Mad Anthony Wayne the founder of Ft. Wayne. Peter the Rock is the original Batman. Peter was crucified upside down upon his request. There was a man on the Kansas team in 2003 whose name is Wayne Anthony the founder of Ft. Wayne's name backwards. Wayne was Kansas's best player but was injured and could not play in that championship game or Kansas might have won. Wayne later won a title in the NBA with Miami and is now a preacher. The son of man is Jesus and the son of man backwards is Man son. Peyton Manning went to play for a horse of a different color, from the Colts to the Broncos. Brock OS(OZ) Weiller Quarterbacked most of there Superbowl winning season. Manning's favorite thing to say at the line of scrimmage was"Omaha." Omaha is what is written on the side of the Hot Air Balloon at the end of the Wizard of Oz. In Superbowl 48 Peyton was defeated by, "the Emerald city", Seattle. In Super Bowl 50 Peyton defeated Superman at the 49ers Cathedral. I was born on January 27, the same as Nick Mason of Pink Floyd. The Dark side of the moon starts with the song "Breathe" which has a lyric "run rabbit run." Eminem played "B Rabbit" in the movie 8 mile which is based on "Run rabbit run" written by John Updyke. John died 7 years later on my birthday. Eminem released the song "the Yellow Brick road" and Elton John released the album "leaving the Yellow Brick road." At the 2001 Grammys they performed the song "Stan," together. Eminem released his autobiography "the dark side of Eminem" the chapter "Stan" starts on my birthday page 127. Stan Lee created Spiderman and when Dorothy runs away the first person she meets is professor Marvel. Spiderman is from Marvel comics. I became Spiderman in 2003 and also dated Mary Jane who was also born in Canton the same city as Marilyn Manson. Andre the Giant who shares my last name and who also climbed cliffs of insanity died on my 13th Birthday 1/27/93. Andre was born in Molien France exactly 127 miles from where my Great Grandfather was born in Belfort France. Belfort is the birthplace of the man who sculpted the statue of Liberty. My name Nickolas Giant contains two New York teams. Manson has been working on the movie "Phantasmagoria" where he plays an evil Lewis Carrol. Lewis was once accused of being Jack the Ripper and Mansons best friend Johnny Depp played in a movie about Jack the Ripper titled "in Hell." Lewis lived most of his life at a college named after Christ and also became a deacon of the church. Carrol who wrote Alice in Wonderland was also born on January 27. Johnny Depp played the Mad Hatter. The founder of Ft. Wayne is Mad Anthony Wayne. Barbara Hershey who played Mary Magdalene in Oliver Stone's last Temptation of Christ was on the set of a movie when she felt the Spirit of a Seagull enter her body. She then changed her last name to Seagull. In 2002 Ja Rule played an inmate on Alcatraz alongside Steven Seagull named "Nickolas" in the movie Half past Dead. In 2003 Ja Rule was trying to murder 50 Cent the same time I felt he was trying to murder me. There is a reason 50 Cent got shot 9 times and didn't die. Manson will turn 50 this January in a country where life expectancy is under 80.
I grew up in Bethlehem, and this video disappointed me. You showed nothing of the north or west sides of the city. Shaky video with a lot of sky. Sorry. While your intentions might be good... thumbs down.
Good video. Thanks for sharing. Bethlehem was a steel making not mining town. :) This video covers a very small part of the City of Bethlehem and Fountain hill PA. Although I did enjoy it.

There are some bars and a few restaurants and the Social Still Distillary. Then the video proceeds to the far West end of 3rd st. and right into Fountain hill. The bigger older houses are 1 block from St. Luke's Hospital. and the rest of the video in is Fountainhill. 3rd St. has three separate bridges that all cross over to the North side of of town and the historic district which has many marked historic buildings and also the Famous Bethlehem hotel, which is on Main st. in the historic district. Main St. is filled with shops and food establishments as well as 2 breweries, a day could be spent there just strolling around. The North side of town is also home to Moravian College. The Moravian history is what makes up the historic district for the most part. Bethlehem steel came along later and Bethlehem grew to almost the size it is today because of the steel.
The casino sign is on the ore bridge that unloaded barges and trains of iron ore and coke and stockpiled it and loaded it onto rail cars to supply the blast furnaces. There were originally two ore bridges on the runway. Now all that remains is one ore bridge. The runway and other one were demolished.
I moved from Bethlehem over 25 years ago and still miss it. The McDonalds at “5 Points” looks different but “Ye Old Ale House” looks the same. I used to walk up that hill without a second thought. Sheesh, I’d be huffing and puffing it now! I miss the row homes. We don’t have them where I live now. That cemetery you drove by has some interesting graves. I don’t recall the names anymore but I believe some bigwigs from Bethlehem Steel are buried there. Thanks for the upload.

This story originated with a 1995 Journal Gazette article in Ft Wayne the same city I walked the yellow brick road in 8 years later. 2003 was also the same year I got arrested for climbing the Anthony Wayne building on St. Pat's. It was an Orange year in 2003. The Ft. Wayne Komets, the Buccaneers, and the Orangemen all won that year. My stepdad Joseph owned a motorcycle shop which was orange as well as all of his drag bikes. The Wizard of OZ is a story about the defeat of the antichrist. The water making the Witch melt is a sign of baptism. All of the teams in Fort Wayne are named after the Wizard of OZ. The Tin Caps are the baseball team which would be The Tin Woodsman. Before they were the Tin caps they were the Wizards. Johnny Appleseed is the original Tin woodsman who is buried in Ft. Wayne. The Komet hockey team used to be the Choppers. Nick Chopper is the Tin Man's name in the book the wizard of Oz.The Ft. Wayne Mad Ants would be the "Aunty M's." In "Return to Oz" Dorothy is sent to the psyche ward. The Doctor tries to give her a shock treatment then lighting knocks the power out. Dorothy escapes out of a window and gets swept away by a river which takes her back to OZ. In 2003 I got swept away by a river where I ended up meeting OZ. The Doctor then tried to give me a shock treatment. I tried to escape out of a window as well. I haven't aged a day since the river incident in 2003 when I was 23. My mothers first tattoo was Peter Pan on her neck yet she still doesn't know that's who her son is. I used to rap as Reaces Peace's and Marshall Mathers rapped as Eminem. Eminem was born in St. Joseph Missouri and I was born at St. Joseph Hospital. We are both left handed and have blue eyes. Eminems middle name is Bruce and he grew up in Wayne county. Batman is Bruce Wayne and Batman was actually named after Mad Anthony Wayne the founder of Ft. Wayne. Peter the Rock is the original Batman. Peter was crucified upside down upon his request. There was a man on the Kansas team in 2003 whose name is Wayne Anthony the founder of Ft. Wayne's name backwards. Wayne was Kansas's best player but was injured and could not play in that championship game or Kansas might have won. Wayne later won a title in the NBA with Miami and is now a preacher. The son of man is Jesus and the son of man backwards is Man son. Peyton Manning went to play for a horse of a different color, from the Colts to the Broncos. Brock OS(OZ) Weiller Quarterbacked most of there Superbowl winning season. Manning's favorite thing to say at the line of scrimmage was"Omaha." Omaha is what is written on the side of the Hot Air Balloon at the end of the Wizard of Oz. In Superbowl 48 Peyton was defeated by, "the Emerald city", Seattle. In Super Bowl 50 Peyton defeated Superman at the 49ers Cathedral. I was born on January 27, the same as Nick Mason of Pink Floyd. The Dark side of the moon starts with the song "Breathe" which has a lyric "run rabbit run." Eminem played "B Rabbit" in the movie 8 mile which is based on "Run rabbit run" written by John Updyke. John died 7 years later on my birthday. Eminem released the song "the Yellow Brick road" and Elton John released the album "leaving the Yellow Brick road." At the 2001 Grammys they performed the song "Stan," together. Eminem released his autobiography "the dark side of Eminem" the chapter "Stan" starts on my birthday page 127. Stan Lee created Spiderman and when Dorothy runs away the first person she meets is professor Marvel. Spiderman is from Marvel comics. I became Spiderman in 2003 and also dated Mary Jane who was also born in Canton the same city as Marilyn Manson. Andre the Giant who shares my last name and who also climbed cliffs of insanity died on my 13th Birthday 1/27/93. Andre was born in Molien France exactly 127 miles from where my Great Grandfather was born in Belfort France. Belfort is the birthplace of the man who sculpted the statue of Liberty. My name Nickolas Giant contains two New York teams. Manson has been working on the movie "Phantasmagoria" where he plays an evil Lewis Carrol. Lewis was once accused of being Jack the Ripper and Mansons best friend Johnny Depp played in a movie about Jack the Ripper titled "in Hell." Lewis lived most of his life at a college named after Christ and also became a deacon of the church. Carrol who wrote Alice in Wonderland was also born on January 27. Johnny Depp played the Mad Hatter. The founder of Ft. Wayne is Mad Anthony Wayne. Barbara Hershey who played Mary Magdalene in Oliver Stone's last Temptation of Christ was on the set of a movie when she felt the Spirit of a Seagull enter her body. She then changed her last name to Seagull. In 2002 Ja Rule played an inmate on Alcatraz alongside Steven Seagull named "Nickolas" in the movie Half past Dead. In 2003 Ja Rule was trying to murder 50 Cent the same time I felt he was trying to murder me. There is a reason 50 Cent got shot 9 times and didn't die. Manson will turn 50 this January in a country where life expectancy is under 80.
I grew up in Bethlehem, and this video disappointed me. You showed nothing of the north or west sides of the city. Shaky video with a lot of sky. Sorry. While your intentions might be good... thumbs down.
Good video. Thanks for sharing. Bethlehem was a steel making not mining town. :) This video covers a very small part of the City of Bethlehem and Fountain hill PA. Although I did enjoy it. Video starts on RT 309 Center Valley then RT 378 entering Bethlehem. proceeds down 4th st. on the South side of town. 4th st. runs parallel to Lehigh University 2 blocks to the right. Video then shows the very "East" end of 3rd St. at the casino which was built on Bethlehem steel property. The Casino now Wind Creek, Sign, is mounted the what was a crane used to load and unload train cars at the steel yard. the rest of 3rd st is mostly small business district. There are some bars and a few restaurants and the Social Still Distillary. Then the video proceeds to the far West end of 3rd st. and right into Fountain hill. The bigger older houses are 1 block from St. Luke's Hospital. and the rest of the video in is Fountainhill. 3rd St. has three separate bridges that all cross over to the North side of of town and the historic district which has many marked historic buildings and also the Famous Bethlehem hotel, which is on Main st. in the historic district. Main St. is filled with shops and food establishments as well as 2 breweries, a day could be spent there just strolling around. The North side of town is also home to Moravian College. The Moravian history is what makes up the historic district for the most part. Bethlehem steel came along later and Bethlehem grew to almost the size it is today because of the steel.
Very good description of the ride...you still live there?
The casino sign is on the ore bridge that unloaded barges and trains of iron ore and coke and stockpiled it and loaded it onto rail cars to supply the blast furnaces. There were originally two ore bridges on the runway. Now all that remains is one ore bridge. The runway and other one were demolished.
Lived in Dethlem as my home-based for almost 21 years. It's always great to see how prolific other folks have been with it.
I moved from Bethlehem over 25 years ago and still miss it. The McDonalds at “5 Points” looks different but “Ye Old Ale House” looks the same. I used to walk up that hill without a second thought. Sheesh, I’d be huffing and puffing it now! I miss the row homes. We don’t have them where I live now. That cemetery you drove by has some interesting graves. I don’t recall the names anymore but I believe some bigwigs from Bethlehem Steel are buried there. Thanks for the upload.
