County records describe a new storage building of about 24,000 square feet at 1274 and 1276 Highway 77 in Upper Deerfield Township, Cumberland County. It is classed as a moderate-hazard storage building, which means the stored goods carry a middling fire risk. The reported construction cost is about $1.9 million.
The records do not say what is on the site now, who will use the building, or who is building it. A web search found no news coverage, developer page or township decision that clearly matches this project. The township planning board has handled other warehouse and industrial projects along Highway 77, but none could be confirmed as this one. This explanation therefore rests on the county facts alone.
What it could mean nearby
- Highway 77 is a main road in the township, so truck or delivery traffic and driveway access would be the main things to check. The records do not give traffic figures.
- A building this size could bring some storage or warehouse jobs. The records do not say how many.
