Potential Neighborhood Watch Alert

A guy in a truck tried to accost my friend as they were walking up 13th toward Lutzi’s. This older man in a pickup truck slowed down by them as they were walking and continued to stare at them as they waved him on. He proceeded to get out of his truck in the middle of the road to try and approach them. They backed away and told him to get back, and thankfully another car was coming up behind him so he had to climb back in and drive away. They don’t remember the color of the truck as their priority was to get away as fast as possible, just posting as a heads up. This happened around 10:55pm on 13th St between Washington and Butler If anyone who lives on that block has a porch camera please reach out

Anyone Know Why the Power went out?

Roughly 4 pm-ish Sunday, was watching Transformers One when the Regal's power went out, and so did my house and many traffic lights along the way. Any word on exactly why? Just curious.

Explosions?

Anyone else hearing explosions? It’s not the typical fireworks noise. I’ve heard it 3 or 4 times tonight. Very loud. South of the city— I think

What is this building in the Easton Heights Cemetery?

I walked past this earlier today but can’t find any information on it online, and I didn’t think to stop by the cemetery office while I was there. Does anyone know anything about it?

To the D&L Canal trail cyclists who stopped after I crashed

Sunday 25 August 2024 around 2pm I was on my first ride on the D&L canal trail between Easton and Bethlehem. I was riding along at a good pace (perhaps too fast) and hit a series of roots on the trail. I had a "yard sale" crash and ended up on the ground, head spinning. I was banged up and bruised but generally OK.

As I was recovering from the impact and getting myself back together, several cyclists stopped and offered help. Just as I was about to set off back to the trailhead, I realized that the impact had not only broken my helmet but also dislodged both of my hearing aids. I began a search and as I was scanning the ground, another cyclist came by and joined in the hunt. He almost immediately found my right side device. Despite a thorough search, we were unable to find the left one. His finding the right one saved big money on the replacement cost.

Bruised and battered, with another helmet already ordered, I send thanks to the community for the assistance.

My wish for clear trails, favorable weather and tailwinds to you.

Easton going broke?

City went down my block yesterday and gave basically every house a violation warning for weeds sticking out in-between the concrete. I've lived here for awhile now and this is the first time. Does this happen often and they just hit up my block yesterday or is the fat guy desperate for money?

What is the toll plaza on i-78 before exit 75 for?

I ride my motorcycle to Eason from NYC, coming from the east, from I-287 to I-78.

It just occurred to me that I pass a toll plaza right after the small Delaware River bridge. But then I take exit 75 to Eason/611, so what is the toll for? I don't think I cross any tolls in Jersey after the Outer Bridge Crossing in Staten Island.

And I don't think there's a toll going back east across the Delaware River.

How much do laffayette students pay for off campus housing?

I’m just curious, but how much does private off campus student housing cost in college hill?

Is it the same price as the house rentals I see listed there or is there different pricing for students?

Crayola Experience Easton - for my toddler’s birthday, is just a photo of the birth certificate okay?

before anyone asks, I did try calling but there was no one available Hi everyone, this weekend we will be taking our toddler to the Crayola Experience for her birthday. I saw on the website that proof of birth date is required, but since she is young, all we have is a birth certificate. That’s such an important document to just carry around, so before I brought it with us, I wanted to know if any of you know if taking a photo of it would suffice. We do not live near Easton so I’d hate to make the trip up for it not to be acceptable. I appreciate any experiences or insight!

Downtown desperately needs a grocery store. And no, not some boutique expensive shop. We need a Giant, Weis, Aldi.... something!!!

Downtown easton is a grocery desert. There are in fact zero simple, neighborhood grocery stores. If you want to be trendy and artsy and overspend, you can pick up a few things in the public market. But that does not count as a grocery store. What downtown needs is a city Weis/Giant/Aldi. Small enough to fit in the city streets, walkable for all of downtown, yet big enough to supply all the essentials.

It is shocking to see all the development with these new apartment complexes, restaurants, and boutique retail, yet there is no simple grocery store for the people of Easton. business-wise, catering to visitors and tourists is more lucrative. But now we have hundreds of people potentially moving in these new apartments, with zero access to groceries downtown. The sketchy wawa and family dollar also do not count as grocery. The rent for these new apartments are also shocking, considering no basic access to supermarket/grocery store. You'd think the rents would be adjusted accordingly, or on the website they warn new tenants that there are no grocery stores, and you have to drive miles to get to one.

I know this post is all over the place, but Easton would be a great place to live if there were a walkable grocery store from downtown.

I just got hit on and she gave me her email. It’s her work email. Should I email her? Is this a LHV thing?

What's going on with the train?

Any info on passenger service coming back to Easton? Or the LHV in general? Last I heard they were trying to decide between NYC and philly as the destination, since they have to choose for some reason.

Hope inspection recommendations for college hill

My wife and I need a home inspection on a house that we may purchase in college hill.

We would greatly appreciate recommendations for home inspectors that you have used and have experience in the neighborhood or experience with old houses.
