The Bristol Township Planning Commission has given the green light for construction of a three-story storage facility in Levittown and of a pair of replacement warehouses on Wilson Avenue, writes Damon Williams for the Bucks County Courier Times.
The storage facility will replace Keith’s Auto once it is demolished. In addition to addressing residents’ traffic concerns, the developer, Baltimore-based Poverni Sheikh Group, had to consolidate its two parcels into one zoning designation.
Conshohocken-based STD Associates will develop the two warehouses that will replace two antiquated ones at a 24-acre plot at 805 North Wilson Avenue that is currently zoned for industrial and manufacturing uses.
“This is an opportunity for us to take a site that has become somewhat outdated and provide new and more contemporary facilities on site,” said land use attorney Amee Farrell of the law firm Kaplin Stewart. “The proposal is to ultimately remove the two existing warehouse facilities that are on site, and to construct two new warehouse facilities in their place.”
