FrankPersonStables

The property has a For Sale sign out front. Perhaps this is one last look. If you’ve driven in South Whitehall Township, Lehigh County, chances are good you’ve often passed the venerable Frank Person Stables. The familiar deep-red wooden stables and adjacent farmhouse still stand after 75 years on a small tract in the southwest corner of Walbert Avenue and Cedar Crest Boulevard, an area once known as Wennersville. The family’s horse business can be traced to the early 1900s at 17th and Allen Streets, Allentown. The stable’s current location was originally farmland. Now the spot is bordered by the Crest Plaza Shopping Center and Target to its immediate south, and to its north in progress is Ridge Farms, a 190-acre mixed-use development along Cedar Crest Boulevard, believed to be South Whitehall’s largest development project to date.
