Historical Information

The construction of the former hotel at 600 Main Street completed in 1926 was conceived by the leading citizens of the borough as an economic investment that would help keep Lykens a prosperous community and pushed toward development and financing through the Hockenbury System.  The building operated as a hotel through the 1970’s, then used as a living facility for elderly before vacancy in the mid 1990’s. Hotel Lykens was determined eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.

The former Israel Building was constructed in 1904 as a commercial building and served as a community anchor in the center of Lykens by providing multiple functions such as retail stores, professional offices, a meeting room, residential and support spaces.  This building was determined eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places in 2014.
