About this project
Costco Wholesale is proposing to enlarge its existing warehouse store at 740 Upper State Road in Montgomery Township by adding about 17,400 square feet through three separate building extensions, one of which will house truck loading and unloading. The store sits on a roughly 16-acre site, and the parking lot and drainage areas would see only minor changes.
