- Point Pleasant, Pennsylvania
Point Pleasant, Pennsylvania is a town in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, with a zip code of 18950. The area was originally settled by the Lenape Indians who fished in the Delaware River. Its proximity to the river led to the development of grist mills. Grain for the soldiers during the Revolutionary War was ground here.
It was also a resting spot for canalmen along the Delaware Division of the Pennsylvania Canal, and a waystation for the Doylestown-Frenchtown-NewYork stage.
Today it is a small town with quaint inns and antiques.
