Penn Avenue Residential is a proposed subdivision of 84 single-family homes on about 52.7 acres in Manchester Township, York County. County records list Landworks Civil Design, LLC, a civil engineering firm, on the filing. The land would be divided into individual house lots, with new streets and utilities.
A December 2025 township planning commission agenda lists the plan as a final subdivision application in the Residential Low zoning district. The agenda describes it as 83 house lots plus two open-space lots. That is close to the county's count of 84 homes, and the difference was not explained in what was found.
No news coverage, developer project page, or public opposition was found. No approval decision was found either.
