Developer seeks conditional preliminary approval for 64-unit Coolidge Commons

Sep 10, 2026

The Coolidge Commons proposal would add 64 townhouses (mostly in Upper Pottsgrove) with primary access from Wilson Street and a required sidewalk and utility improvements; the developer requested conditional preliminary approval and clarified intermunicipal access, sewer connections, and potential traffic impacts.

The full story

A developer representative presented Coolidge Commons, a 64-townhouse project mostly located in Upper Pottsgrove with a Wilson Street entrance inside Pottstown Borough. The team said most units will be in the neighboring township but the development's principal ingress will be on the borough side; Upper Pottsgrove requested (and the developer agreed to) a sidewalk on the north side of Wilson Street and some Coolidge Avenue improvements to serve as an alternate egress. The representative said the planning commission recommended preliminary approval subject to satisfying review-letter conditions and that federal/state conservation-district approvals remain to be obtained.
