HREG - Collegeville Multifamily

The full picture AI research · Nov 1, 2026

A developer proposes 472 apartments in four buildings on about 30 acres along South Collegeville Road (Route 29) near Perkiomen Boulevard. The site is next to the Collegeville Borough line. It is in the township's Yerkes Mixed-Use District.

The six existing homes on the six parcels would be demolished. About half the site lies in a floodplain, and that part would stay undeveloped. The apartments would connect to public water and sewer.

Township coverage describes the developer as a joint venture. Township records list the applicants as Acquisition Corp. Holding Group and Audubon Land Development. Local news reported that the planning commission held off recommending the plan while technical review comments were still open. It also reported that the developer moved the active recreation areas to the south side of the site after neighbors raised concerns. A citizen-portal summary reports a split 3–2 supervisor vote for tentative approval, with residents concerned about traffic, building height and flooding.
