Ferry Landing Park

A pocket of riverbank at the foot of Ferry Street where the Delaware slides past and Lambertville sits across the water. Washington's army crossed here at Coryell's Ferry in June 1778 on the way to Monmouth; now it's a few sculptures, some benches, and the ducks.

Address: E Ferry St, New Hope, PA 18938

Delaware Canal State Park

The towpath runs 58.9 miles from Easton to Bristol, the last fully intact canal left from America's towpath era, and the flat, shaded New Hope stretch is the walk or bike ride you point visitors toward. Mules hauled coal barges down this water into the 1930s, and the Locktender's House by the lock still lays out how the whole thing worked.

WPA Twin Bridges

Two white suspension footbridges the WPA strung across Lake Lenape in 1938, modeled on the same Roebling design behind the Brooklyn Bridge. Roughly 500 feet of towers and cable over the creek, and still the only suspension bridges anywhere in Pennridge.
