The project turns an existing building at 119 Main Street in downtown Phoenixville into a mixed-use building. The ground floor becomes about 7,620 square feet of office space. The second and third floors each get six apartments, 12 in total.
The lot is small, about 0.18 acre. The rear parking lot stays as it is. The borough's project page calls this a renovation and conversion of the existing building, not a new tower.
The borough's page says Borough Council approved the project in June 2024 and that it is now under construction. No news coverage or opposition turned up. Rental listings for the address advertise small studio apartments. These listings may or may not be the apartments from this plan.
What it could mean nearby
- Adds up to 12 homes in the walkable downtown core.
- Ground-floor office space could bring daytime workers to nearby Main Street shops and restaurants.
