I was born and raised there went to Easton High School across the street in the 80's. Surprised it hasn't been demolished for the land value at this point.
It looks like any plans for redevelopment have completely stalled. I read one article that said because the building is constructed so solid, It would be very expensive to take it down. Thanks for watching.
I drove an 18 wheeler for a bakery in Reading. Pa. We stored thousands of MT bread trays in this old building. I would drive up from Reading with an MT trailer, drive onto the lot to the back of the building. Back into a loading dock and the men there would load the trailer with stacks of MT orange bread trays. Our Bakery plant in Wilson can be seen in the video. Paus the video at 0:44 and just to "our" left looking at the huge Dixie Cup is a Red brick large factory type building in the distance with two story white entrance's, one faceing street and another facing employee parking lot.😀😀😀
I fondly remember the aroma of that bread bakery. Has to be one of the best smells ever. My family lived in Easton from 86 to 89. I was 9 when we moved further west, but I’ll never forget that fresh baked bread aroma 👍🏼 Thanks for the memories.
Really cool to see!
Thank you,
