Divers by a sunken boat called the Silver Comet at Dutch Springs, a 50-acre water park and scuba diving site since 1980 that features a 100-foot-deep water filled quarry, north of Bethlehem, Nov. 23, 2021. The Dutch Springs quarry has been acquired by a pair of owners, who plan to resume scuba diving at the Northampton County site next year with a new name: Lake Hydra.

Nearly a year after news leaked about its potential sale for warehousing, the Dutch Springs quarry has new owners and a new name.

Former Northampton County Council member Kenneth Kraft and Jim Folk have bought the water-filled quarry from Trammell Crow Co., which acquired most of the land off Hanoverville Road in Northampton County to develop two warehouses. Financial terms were not disclosed.
