Located in the Lehigh Valley, the city of Easton was once known as the Entrance to the Grand Valley.


Its location at the confluence of the Delaware and Lehigh Rivers made it a prized position for commerce and early settlement. At the dawn of its creation, Easton played a major role in the Walking Purchase of 1737; later, Easton was the location of talks to end both the French and Indian and the Revolutionary Wars. By the early 19th century, Easton had become one of the first industrial centers of the region; when the town was incorporated in 1887, nearly 11,000 people called Easton home. Historic Easton traces the evolution of a small frontier village to a large industrial center, spanning the years from the earliest settlements to the 1940s.
