Welcome to a once-in-a-lifetime chance to own a large part of the City of Bethlehem, and it's history. For your consideration is this historic nearly 7-acre cemetery property, still an ongoing active burial place, here in Northeast Bethlehem at the GATEWAY to the City which now enjoys the designation as a UNESCO site. Folks coming into Bethlehem from the North using Linden St. (RT 191) and Center St. (RT 512) and heading to center city Bethlehem via New St. have to pass by here, and with the large almost 1/4 acre open area, makes this an attractive spot for signage or a marquee to welcome those visitors. Today the cemetery is popular among dog walkers and exercise seekers, and those just wanting to have some quiet reflection while sitting in that area designated for such. The two biggest local entities that should consider a stake in this property is the City of Bethlehem and Moravian University, to make full and best use of a resource to promote the UNESCO future plan, preserving insuring the large park-like green space remains as such, and is well cared for so that future generations can appreciate it's value to local residents. There are many purchase option scenarios the owner will consider, from long term lease of just the open area, or the full outright sale of the complete property to continue as a burial ground, with some 333 open grave spaces still available for sale. The goal of the owner is to develop a succession plan to maintain the property as green space.
