Ambler Borough Council Considers Proposed Apartment Complex

According to The Reporter, Ambler Borough Council heard a presentation about the proposed Ambler Crossings apartment complex at their June meeting before they contemplate voting on the project at their July 16 meeting.

The buildings, which are proposed be built at 201 South Maple Avenue, would help further the borough’s ambition to revitalize the development district along the SEPTA train line, according to James Garrity, speaking for Summit Realty Advisors LLC.

Garrity said that there will be 151 units for rent on the 4.62-acre property.

“The architecture, lighting, landscaping has been done to mimic the boiler house,” Garrity said. “It’s brick on every side. There’s no bad sides to these buildings. The very, very large window on the boiler house has been mimicked, so you get that same theme as you have on the front of the boiler house. It’s historic, it’s kind of iconic in the borough.”
