John Joseph, Inc. proposes a new two-story, 11,760 sq ft warehouse at the southeastern corner of Street Road and Moore Avenue in Bensalem Township, Bucks County. The site is a 0.96-acre lot (about 41,733 sq ft).
The lot already holds a two-story, 13,282 sq ft warehouse, and that building will stay. The existing office and garage will be removed to make room for the new building. Once built, the lot would have about 25,000 sq ft of warehouse space in two buildings.
The county records say public water and sewer serve the site. No news coverage, township meeting item, hearing notice or developer page specific to this project was found. Nothing public shows opposition, approvals or who will use the new space.
What it could mean nearby
- Traffic: the project adds warehouse space on a corner lot along Street Road. No traffic study or access details were found.
- Utilities: public water and sewer already serve the site, so no new utility extensions are indicated in the records.
- Open space and homes: the project replaces an office and garage on an already developed lot, and no housing is proposed.
Where it stands
The county filing dated 2025-11-10 is the latest record found. No township approval or decision could be confirmed online. Projects like this usually go to the township planning commission and supervisors for land development review, and may also need zoning relief if the plan departs from the zoning rules.
