BETHLEHEM, Pa. — Racecar driver Marco Andretti’s vision for 11 new apartments in West Bethlehem got a unanimous green light from the city Planning Commission on Thursday. The vote also included a consolidation of the two lots at 817 W. Broad St. and neighboring 821-823 (his grandparents’ old duplex), each planned to be home to four and seven units, respectively. The only new structure to be built on site would be a 13-foot stair tower on the southwestern corner of 821, project officials said.
