The Village is an existing shopping center of about 6 acres at 511-521 Stump Road in Montgomery Township. The plan would add a new two-story building on the southern parking area, with medical offices and apartments. Apartments would also be added on the second floors of two existing buildings.
In all, the county lists 25 new homes and about 3,600 square feet of non-residential space. The restaurant building would stay as it is, and no existing buildings would be torn down. A leasing listing describes the center as about 56,000 square feet of retail and office space with parking for 320 cars.
The township's land development page lists the project as a proposed mixed-use complex. In February 2024 the township supervisors voted 3-1 on a sewage-planning step for it. No news coverage, opposition or named tenants were found.
What it could mean nearby
- The new building would replace part of the existing parking lot, so the site would keep its current footprint rather than spread onto new land.
- 25 apartments would add residents close to existing shops and offices.
- Sewage planning was part of the review, so the township looked at how the added homes and offices would connect to the sewer system.
- Medical offices would add visitors and employees, but no traffic study was found.
Where it stands
The county's latest filing is dated February 2024, and the township's land development page lists a date of September 9, 2024 for the project. That page's wording was unclear, so final approval is not confirmed. No construction or occupancy news was found. After land development approval, a project usually needs building permits before construction can start.
