Newside is a small hamlet in Lehigh County, Pennsylvania, located four miles west of the town of Neffs, at the corner of Park Avenue and Newside Road. It is part of the Lehigh Valley metropolitan area.[1]
Park Avenue is a major thoroughfare for citizens of the nearby communities, as it connects PA Route 873 with the outlying towns along the Blue Mountain. It also provides a route to the Appalachian Trail at Bake Oven Knob.
Washington Street parallels Park Avenue and PA Route 309. It is a very important local alternate to the latter for accessing the locales to the north.
Newside Road runs perpendicular from Park Avenue to 309.
