Housenick Park
Housenick Park is the popular name for a passive park located in Bethlehem Township, Pennsylvania. The 55 acre/22.3 hectare Janet Johnston Housenick and William D. Housenick Memorial Park of Bethlehem Township and the 36 acre/14.6 hectare Archibald Johnston Conservation Area of Northampton County comprise the park. The two parcels were gifts of Janet Johnston Housenick, the great-granddaughter of Archibald Johnston, the first mayor of the consolidated city of Bethlehem.
== Location ==
Housenick Park is located in the northwestern part of Bethlehem Township along the Monocacy Creek (a tributary of the Lehigh River). Automobile, bicycle, and pedestrian access to the park is from Nazareth Pike and Christian Spring Road in Bethlehem Township. An unmarked lane opening to the west from of Christian Spring Road leads to the park's parking area. An interpretive kiosk contains a map and information on the park.
Adjoining the park but not part of it are two former Johnston-family properties. The first, the Christian Spring Spiritual Center, was first the home of Johnston's son, Archibald Borhek Johnston and later the home of his daughter, Elizabeth Johnston Prime. Elizabeth Prime left her home and surrounding land to Bethlehem's (Central Moravian Church ) on her death on May 25, 2006.
Another property was the home of another of Archibald Borhek Johnston's daughters, Amanda Johnston Leckonby ("Johnnie"). The 1836 Adam Geringer farmstead (Pennsylvania bank barn and farmhouse with outbuildings) was sold by Leckonby's estate to the (Friends of Johnston ), a 501(c)3 organization dedicated to preservation and adaptive reuse of the property, in 2015. The property was renamed "Camel's Hump Farm on the Johnston Estate". This property will eventually be connected by trail to Housenick Park.
