I moved out in 79' and graduated and moved to coastal south Carolina my parents moved out after my father retired from Conrail and reading. Sold in 82' raised 5 kids in that jubilee house. Thanks for the video!

Levittown parkway every weekend

Thanks for the ride, Mike! I looked down at my tablet and I saw that a video about Levittown, Pa was about to start. My family moved into a house on Gable Hill Road in 1979 or maybe it was 1978. We came from Elizabeth, NJ, Bayway section, in the Burbs… You passed by Goldenridge section, where I lived, going down Edgely Road, early into the video. It really was nice to ride with you all around the Levittown area… I now live in Reading Pa. There’s no nice, wide streets in this city, Mike… I wonder if you’ve got a video driving around Reading Pa? ❤😊

Thanks 👍

Amazing how much it looks like Levittown out here on Long Island..

It is said that Levittown Long Island was the test project for what would eventually be Levittown PA. After the Levitts finished the project in Long Island, they sought to do a bigger project which would become Levittown Pennsylvania. The Levitts also built Willingboro NJ which shares some similarities with the other Levittowns.

Awesome! I left Leaveittown in 2017! Glad to be gone but very cool seeing my 2 story white house in the far background when you made the left onto Willow Drive. Then you turned off into Elderberry dang lol! Good times but seriously glad I'm out again. Never ever goin' back this time 😅

Holly Drive has to be one of, if not thee highest point in Levittown PA. You can actually see all the way to the landfill at the top of Holly Hill. In the video you can actually see it briefly around 15:41.

60 years ago there would have been so many kids playing in the streets there.

Strange thinking I could be driving past you at this point.

I wonder how many of these are the original Homes at Levitt built from 1952 to 57. There were 5 different styles to choose from.
