Penington Friends House
Pleasant rooms (two) for travelers in an intentional residential community of Quakers and others living according to Quaker values. Accommodations (as of November 2019) include a light breakfast and an evening meal Sundays through Thursdays.
The building was not designed to be accessible and potential guests need to know that part of the Penington’s charm are in traveling its staircases.
My room, the Phebe (third floor) is the smaller of two rooms. It has an immaculate half-bath and a shower just outside the door. The larger Darlington is on the second floor.
I can see how this could be a wonderful base of operations for researchers coming to the city for work.
Looking forward to my next stay.

Bethlehem Sculpture Garden
Works by Harry Bertoia and Rudy Ackerman, among other artists, are on permanent view in this sculpture garden below and to the east of City Hall.
The garden and the municipal complex were built on the site of the childhood home of the poet H.D. (Hilda Doolittle). H.D. is buried in the nearby Nisky Hill Cemetery.
Access by stairs from Church Street; wheelchair access through the curved drive adjacent to the city parking garage.
