Inventory of available  property ought to simply the economic development processes for any community. A weekend afternoon walkabout in a confined part of town yielded more than a handful of “available” sites for development.

And there are lot more; the just vacated Turkey Hill convenience store next to the long-time vacant Pizza Hut site on Lancaster Avenue. The empty Lincoln Way Diner site. The empty spots in the “recently developed” THE convenience store/gas station complex project.

Add in the handful or more empty store fronts in the 400 block of Locust Street and you have an economic developer’s dream!
