The full picture AI research · Nov 1, 2026
A developer has proposed a four-story apartment building with 124 units on about 3.6 acres. The site is at Virginia Drive and West Office Center Drive, inside the Fort Washington Office Park in Upper Dublin Township.
The county record describes this as a smaller version of an earlier plan for 171 units. That earlier plan had a parking deck inside the building. The new plan also adds a public gathering space along the Cross County Trail.
The site is in an office park, so it is probably now office land or parking. The records don't say what is there today.
No news coverage, meeting records or developer page about this specific proposal was found online, so nothing is known about opposition, approvals or future residents.
What it could mean nearby
- The Cross County Trail gathering space could add open space that the public can use.
- 124 new apartments would add housing to an area that is mostly offices. The records don't say how many residents or jobs to expect.
- Traffic, school and utility effects are not described in the records found, so they would be reviewed during township approval.
Where it stands
The latest county filing is dated August 23, 2024, and no later approval was found. Plans like this usually go through township planning and zoning review, then a vote by the local governing body, before construction permits are issued.
