While we’re waiting to find out details about the sale of Penn Branch Shopping Center, the parking lot restoration continues to move forward.

According to the Rappaport Company management team, the part of the parking lot that has been closed over the summer will reopen the week of September 5th, and phase 2, which includes the parking lot area in front of Wells Fargo, Subway, T-Mobil and Custom will close for resurfacing and renovation.

The shopping center will have the same traffic flow set up which includes: the installation of traffic arrows, traffic barriers and open signage’s as they did for Phase 1. Temporary signage stating “All Stores Open” banner has been installed on the roof.

Phase 2 is estimated to be completed, weather permitting, within 40 days. The parking attendant will remain on site as long as management deems it’s not necessary. I
