Prosperity Drive Associates proposes a warehouse of about 124,740 square feet on a 10.3-acre lot in Providence Business Park, Upper Providence Township, Montgomery County. The county filing lists the project as the Catalyst Distribution Center at PBP3. For scale, that is roughly the floor area of two and a half football fields.
The lot is undeveloped now. The county summary says the building would employ about 49 workers and connect to public water and sewer.
No news coverage, township meeting records, developer project page or tenant announcement specific to this project was found online. The details here come only from the county planning filing, which was last updated on 2026-01-22.
What it could mean nearby
- Jobs: about 49 workers are expected at the site, according to the county summary.
- Utilities: the building would use public water and sewer, so it would not need wells or a septic system.
- Land use: an undeveloped lot inside an existing business park would become a building and paved areas.
- Traffic: no traffic study was found, so truck and car volumes on Prosperity Drive are not yet known.
