1. Proposed Bushkill apartment buildings conflict with prior plans (lafayettestudentnews.com) — A major apartment project called The Foundry is proposed along Easton's Bushkill River, but its scaled-back commercial space and boxy design are drawing sharp criticism from city officials and preservationists. The land, recently acquired by the city, could host over 250 apartments and limited storefronts, while the Karl Stirner Arts Trail hopes to secure a small visitor center inside.
2. UGI System Upgrades to Begin Next Week in Easton (reportablenews.com) — UGI Utilities will start replacing a natural gas main in Easton on Tuesday, September 15, affecting North 13th Street between Bushkill Drive and Wood Avenue through mid-November. Expect weekday construction from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., traffic restrictions, and brief gas service interruptions while crews access properties to inspect and relight equipment, with final paving and restoration to follow.

Man shot, killed after confrontation with 2 people at home in West Easton (tiogapublishing.com) — A 52-year-old man was found shot to death inside his home in West Easton on Saturday morning, prompting a large response from state police and local agencies.
