     History
    The Lehigh-Northampton Airport Authority has purchased dozens of homes, farms, and fields since the 1970s for future expansion. 107 acres, to be exact. At least five years ago, there was rumor of a convention center, complete with golf course, being built in this area. Those are still just rumors. Until then, fairly modern homes lay to die.
     Media Coverage
    Crap, there's a lot. Check the thread a scrolls-worth down - I'll post them there, since mcall.com likes to delete stories after a while.
     Future Plans
    Nothing is confirmed, plenty is rumored. Whatever is planned, there will be much drama. Such is life in Lehigh County.
