Story #10 - Lehigh Valley
/Story #10 is about how SSM extended its roots to include the Lehigh Valley region.
Our Lehigh Valley presence is over 40 years strong. In 1974, SSM purchased a small engineer’s firm named Russel E. Neal, who actually worked out of his house with 3 employees. R.E.Neal represented many of the southern Carbon County and northern Lehigh/Northampton County municipalities as well as did many of the property surveys and land development in the area. We still represent one of those municipalities: Walnutport Borough, which R.E. Neal was the engineer since the early 1950s. In 1974, SSM opened a new office on Rte. 443 in Lehighton and kept the R.E. Neal employees on staff.
In 1986, the office grew and moved to a new location in Whitehall Township near Rte. 145. Then, in 2007 we grew to 25 employees and moved to an office plaza in Bethlehem.
Our current location in the Lehigh Valley Office is in the Roma Office Building in South Whitehall Township.
Over the years our buildings changed, but our Lehigh Valley presence has continued to be an integral piece of our growth and a representation of the many communities we are proud to serve.
