About this project
Willner Properties Services plans to tear down the existing Jiffy Lube service building at 150 Allendale Road in Upper Merion Township, on the corner of Allendale Road and West DeKalb Pike. In its place would go a 174-unit apartment building with parking on its lower level, a pool, and landscaped common space, joined to the existing residential and commercial buildings already on the Courtside Square site. A one-story commercial building of about 6,090 square feet would also be built along West DeKalb Pike.
