Hawthorne Square is a proposed neighborhood of 52 townhomes on about 8.32 acres behind the existing shops along West Ridge Pike in Limerick Township, Montgomery County. The developer is W.B. Homes Land Acquisitions, LP.
The land is made up of four lots at 311, 313, 319 and 327 W Ridge Pike. The plan would reshape the lot lines. On the easternmost parcel, two two-story buildings, a shed, a wooden fence and the paved areas would be torn down to make room for the homes.
No news coverage, township meeting records or developer page were found that clearly refer to this project. This summary rests on the county filing, which was last updated on May 14, 2025. Details such as home prices, who will live there, and any opposition or approvals are not known.
What it could mean nearby
- Homes would sit behind the Ridge Pike storefronts, so access to the road and traffic effects would likely be reviewed, but no traffic study was found.
- The plan adds 52 households to the area. School and utility effects have not been published in any source found.
- Two older buildings and paved areas would be replaced by new housing.
