I mean, yikes! So much for Berwyn Square being the fabulous addition to Easttown Township, right? I mean, how long is Easttown Township going to allow this to go on? This affects property values of neighboring properties, residential and commercial. It looks like a slum.
I was tipped off today when I saw a post:
So the entire roof hasn’t completely collapsed as of earlier with photos sent to me, but you look at the photos being shared here that residents sent to me today and you tell me if you think that looks safe? And how about there’s no construction fencing around this entire project and does police tape, and those sawhorse / barricade things keep people out?
Residents have expressed concern for quite a while now haven’t they? Haven’t among the complaints been not only does the site look like a slum, people have questioned it being secure as in. They’re worried about people getting into it?
I posted about this in June 2024 :
I think I first wrote about this in 2019 and that would’ve been under the prior developer. The meetings caused such a huge resident turnout that they had to cancel one of them and reschedule.
Residents have been against this super sizing since this first began and I think that was what 2018 or so? I’ve lost count because this has been going on and been a consternation for so many years at this point.

This is the website for DP Partners who own this obviously dilapidated development site:
I have to ask how can they say? They actually care about the community around this site and how can Easttown allow this to continue? This is ridiculous. There isn’t even cyclone fencing up around this site. Haven’t residents been worried before about middle schoolers and other kids getting in there?
OK, everyone gets it. The site will be developed, but what was there before obviously needs to be taken down ASAP no BS. They need to clear that lot and make it look neat and safe. Now I realize in order for Easttown Township to do the cleanup themselves they might have to take the property via eminent domain, but wouldn’t that be for public purpose at this point because it doesn’t look quite safe? And I don’t like eminent domain, but they’re not taking care of the property and they’re not moving forward on the project right now, are they? Now I also wonder if Easttown could force the unsafe structures to come down as a matter of public safety without taking the property because I remember East Whiteland did that on two dilapidated properties two different times in recent memory.
The neighbors deserve better. The residents of Easttown in general deserve better.
It seems like no matter what municipality you live in you are living with development sites that haven’t quite popped yet and they just sit there rotting don’t they? 
Giddy up Easttown and DP Partners, giddy up. This is BS. This developer likes to tell people at meetings how he’s one with the community, well dude do you want this across the street from your house?
Rant over.
