EASTON and CATASAUQUA, Pa. – Easton and Catasauqua residents most likely will be writing “2027” on their correspondence by the time they can mail it from their hometown post offices.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Both post offices- 201 Ferry Street in Easton and 205 Bridge Street in Catasauqua- are not scheduled to reopen until the new year, a United States Postal Service (USPS) spokesperson told 69 News.<\/p>\n

Both buildings have been closed for repairs following separate, damaging events.<\/p>\n

A partial roof collapse at the Catasauqua facility has kept that building closed since June of 2024.<\/p>\n

\"Catasauqua<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Catasauqua Post Office\u00a0<\/p>\n

Easton’s post office closed in early March of this year following substantial water damage from an unspecified source.<\/p>\n

The USPS spokesperson said Catasauqua’s target reopening date is January of 2027.<\/p>\n

Repairs in Easton are expected to wrap in the spring of 2027, the spokesperson said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Mail for Catasauqua residents is currently being rerouted through post offices in Hanover and Whitehall townships; Easton residents have been told to use the Palmer Township facility at\u00a0650 S. Greenwood Avenue.<\/p>\n

The USPS previously had not provided an update on when Easton’s post office would reopen.<\/p>\n

The Catasauqua facility originally had a target reopening set for fall of 2025; that was then pushed to the summer of this year, and then December 2026.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"EASTON and CATASAUQUA, Pa. – Easton and Catasauqua residents most likely will be writing “2027” on their correspondence…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":191463,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[119,121,120,8469,85243,28,1470],"class_list":["post-191462","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-allentown","tag-allentown","tag-allentown-headlines","tag-allentown-news","tag-catasauqua","tag-palmer-township-facility","tag-pennsylvania","tag-united-states-postal-service"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/191462","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=191462"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/191462\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/191463"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=191462"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=191462"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=191462"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
