West Catasauqua, Pennsylvania

West Catasauqua is an unincorporated village in Whitehall Township in Lehigh County, Pennsylvania.

It uses the Whitehall Zip Code of 18052, and is directly across the Lehigh River from the mouth of Catasauqua Creek, the site of the first successful anthracite iron producing North American blast furnaces in 1839.

An abandoned segment of the Lehigh Valley Railroad lies within the village along the Lehigh River, including an abandoned switch yard where the village meets Hokendauqua just north of the Pine Street bridge.

The West Catasauqua Playground is located in the geographical heart of the village along Pine Street.

The West Catasauqua Fire Company as well as a Cetronia Ambulance Corps station are located within the village limits.
