It’s Friday, July 17, 2026: I know you’re curious. This week we get a first look at the new plans for 410 S. High St. That’s the old Burger King property. The first option was sued by neighbors. Wonder how they are feeling about this one? Want to weigh in?
Also, West Chester Borough makes room for data centers, but does it on its own terms; West Goshen has big ideas for Paoli Park, and Westtown is set to dismiss its Historical Commission. Plus, National Foam presents its PFAS cleanup plan; no credit for originality, the Borough is looking into hybrid meetings, West Chester University is facing a tuition increase, and WormCon is back.
Who’s ready? Let’s catch up.
