Old Fairgrounds Historic District blends 19th-century character with city-center convenience, offering blocks of brick rowhomes and porched twins just steps from the cultural core of Allentown. Weekends can start at the Allentown Art Museum, with rotating exhibits and family programs, and roll into a concert, hockey game, or marquee event at PPL Center—all within an easy stroll. Cafes and global eateries along Hamilton Street keep the neighborhood’s dining scene lively from morning to late night.
Daily life here feels connected. The district sits near riverfront paths and pocket parks, while the Allentown School District serves local students from elementary through high school, offering arts, athletics, and college- and career-readiness resources. Commuters appreciate LANTA’s frequent bus service and quick access across the city, with straightforward links to Bethlehem and the rest of Lehigh County for work or weekend plans.
