Among the WPA projects in the Lehigh Valley area were “… the stone retaining walls that run along the banks of the Lehigh River in Bethlehem.” The exact location and status of these structures is presently unknown to Living New Deal.

They weren’t along the Lehigh; they were along the Monocacy. They can been seen along Conestoga St in “the hole.”
I think you are right about them being along the Monocacy, too. But, there are some walls along the north bank of the Lehigh River, between it and River Street, by the Hill-to-Hill Bridge on Sand Island: https://goo.gl/maps/DBxpV6vdLNbK2qLS6. I’ve always thought they were New Deal resources, as well.
