abandoned / shut down, closed, historical layer / disappeared object
Past home of one of the largest steel mills in history, a very key contributor during WWII, and future home to "Bethworks", a huge complex containing residential units, retail units, a mall, and a casino. Hopefully going to revive Bethlehem and return it to the map.
