Gadfly:

There are three National Register Districts under local ordinance, Bethlehem HD, South Bethlehem HD, and Mount Airy HD. There are, however, several other National Register Historic Districts in Bethlehem, Pembroke HD, Elmwood Park HD, and Fountain Hill HD. These are not “protected” under local ordinance. Of course, there are many individual buildings/properties that are also listed.
