Bethlehem’s Boyd Theatre is sold, and new owners plan 14-story apartment building in its place

Nearly a decade ago, the single screen at Bethlehem’s Boyd Theatre faded to black. Ever since, several ideas have been pitched for the property, aimed at injecting life into a sleepy block around the corner from busy Main Street.

Now, the property’s new owner wants the city to picture this: a luxury apartment building that stretches 14 stories into the air, with a restaurant atop what would be one of downtown Bethlehem’s tallest structures. Inside, the building would have a pool, fitness center and a private movie theater for residents, who would park in an underground garage. Those walking past on West Broad Street would see ground-floor retail shops.
