Magnolia Greene Commercial is a proposed shopping area on a 6.78-acre property. It sits at the corner of Willow Glenn Road and Main Street (S.R. 23) in Caernarvon Township, Berks County. County records describe four separate commercial sites with a combined 36,134 square feet of building space.
The county summary lists Aldi, Applebee's, Chick-fil-A and Wawa as the businesses. Together that would be a grocery store, a sit-down restaurant, a fast-food restaurant and a convenience store with fuel. The records do not say what currently stands on the land.
No news coverage, township meeting records or developer project page were found for this proposal. Details such as final tenants, building layouts and approval conditions could not be confirmed beyond the county filing.
What it could mean nearby
- Four busy retail and food businesses on Main Street (S.R. 23) could add turnover of vehicles at the corner. Any road or driveway changes would be set during review, and none were found in public sources.
- The project would likely create retail and restaurant jobs, though no job estimates were found.
- The 6.78-acre site would be developed, so any open or undeveloped land there would be replaced by buildings and paving.
Where it stands
A land development filing was recorded by the county on 2026-04-01, so the plan is under review and no approval was found. Next, the county and township planning bodies usually review it, and the township supervisors vote on approval, often with conditions on traffic, stormwater and utilities.
