Pawlowski Nominates DCED Director Happy to pass on the news that Mayor Ed Pawlowski has nominated Sara Hailstone as the Director of Community and Economic Development for the City of Allentown. Sara comes from years in a similar role in Scranton and at the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development. We expect to have a great working relationship with her and look forward to the positive impact she will have on the department. Let's hope that council approves her nomination!
Sweet Italian Pizza Authentic dining on Seventh Street is on our
mind today! One of our favorite lunches is a slice from Sweet Italian, a pizza place with a Mexican twist. The pizza is fabulous, the people are great, and the prices are very reasonable. The best part is that if you have a craving for tacos al pastor, you can get those too! Ask to see the poblano menu. Another great example of the diversity of Allentown and 7th Street Allentown!

DOT announces $1.5 billion distributed through 51 TIGER grants nationwide. | Regretfully, no awards to Allentown. We had applied for freight rail funding and bike/ped improvements. The good news? Philadelphia/Camden got funding for bike/ped improvements, and Pennsylvania, Ohio, and West Virginia will get $98 million for freight rail.
