Editing Bethlehem, New York (section)

== Local landmarks ==
The town includes several historic buildings and landmarks.

* Four Corners: This Delmar intersection of Delaware and Kenwood avenues has served as the town's traditional center. It is the location of several stores, banks, restaurants and the post office. It is within walking distance of most Delmar residents.
* Adams House: In 1838 Nathaniel Adams built a hotel on Delaware Avenue. This stately building later served as the town hall.  In 1980, the Town Hall moved to a larger location, and the volunteer fire department took over the building. Until 2016, Adams House was used as the headquarters of the New York State Association of Retarded Citizens, when it was sold to the Bethlehem Chabad, an Orthodox Jewish assembly. The Delmar Fire Department maintains the fire station to the rear of the structure, at the intersection of Nathaniel and Adams streets.
* Beckers Homestead: Albertus Becker built this house in 1800.  His grandson, Albertus Becker II, was elected town supervisor in 1863.

* Memorial Park: A small pocket park along Delaware Avenue to honor the town's war veterans. The park provides pedestrian access to the old Delaware and Hudson railway bed. The railway bed is being converted to a bike trail (rails to trails program) as funds become available.
* Elm Avenue Park: The town's largest park, it is a popular summertime gathering point. It includes three outdoor swimming pools, a splash zone for toddlers, playground, basketball and tennis courts.  Winter activities include ice skating, hockey, cross country skiing, sledding, and snowmobiling.  Admission to the pool area is restricted to town residents and their guests under a fee-based system.

Its facilities include outdoor tennis courts, basketball courts, softball fields, running track, cross country trails, and soccer fields.  These facilities are open to the public when the school is not in session. The high school was moved to a new building and this was adapted as a middle school.
