About Easton
Easton, at the confluence of the Delaware and Lehigh Rivers, is the Lehigh Valley's eastern anchor — a small city with a grand Centre Square, a lively restaurant and arts scene, and deep Revolutionary-era roots (one of three first public readings of the Declaration of Independence happened here). Lafayette College sits on College Hill above downtown. The city mixes historic downtown rowhomes, College Hill's grand homes, and West Ward neighborhoods, with redevelopment momentum along the riverfronts and downtown.
