The five-story annex of the Bethlehem Steel General Office building was last used as a temporary school when mold at Freemansburg Elementary displaced students in 2000.
Today, visitors to the 120,000-square-foot building at East Third Street and Founder’s Way must don respirators and protective gear to visit the mold-and asbestos-riddled building that once housed Bethlehem Steel mainframe computers.
Local developer Michael Perrucci, who owns it and the adjacent 13-story general office building, sees the smaller annex as the perfect way to launch a phased redevelopment of the site. But first he must environmentally clean-up the annex he hopes to renovate into modern offices.

Bethlehem working to find new grocer to replace Ahart’s Market after it closes end of April
Updated Mar 16, 2021;
The city of Bethlehem is working to find a new grocery store to replace one of the Southside’s two major grocery stores, which is closing at the end of April.
For about 20 years, Ahart’s Market, 410 Montclair Ave., has been a vital source of high-quality and affordable food for residents of South Bethlehem and neighboring Fountain Hill.
News broke last week that Ahart’s would be closing, leaving South Bethlehem with C-Town Supermarket as its only full-service grocery, prompting a groundswell of community support urging the city to offer incentives to attract another grocery store.

The owners of the 53-acre Martin Tower property have submitted updated plans for the massive redevelopment project for the first time in nearly two years.
The developers want to tweak the city zoning rules governing the redevelopment of the former Bethlehem Steel Corp. world headquarters to allow for more parking near proposed medical buildings.
Bethlehem City Council Tuesday night scheduled an April 20 public hearing on the zoning text amendment request. The planning commission will review the request at a 5 p.m. meeting March 11.
