River Station, Chester County's premier mixed-use, transit-oriented development, is located at the bustling intersection of Brandywine Avenue and Boot Road in the heart of Downingtown. Designed as an urban social environment intermixed with multimodal links, River Station will provide a sense of community and opportunities to live, work, and play. River Station supports the revitalization of Downingtown to draw local and regional visitors to the site. Residents, tenants, and visitors alike will enjoy the landscaped walking paths, outdoor meeting and event areas, and alfresco dining experiences. Neighboring national retailers include Wawa, Wegmans, The Home Depot, Chick-fil-A, NAPA Auto Parts, and Lowe's Home Improvement.
After more than a decade of planning, the future Downingtown Train Station is under construction adjacent to the River Station development, replacing the nearby West Lancaster Avenue station. Commuters will be thrilled about the ease of SEPTA public transit access, as River Station is just steps from the future platforms. Other development features include a connection to the Struble Trail via a planned pedestrian bridge and the ability for future walking path connections, including the Chester Valley Trail, to promote accessibility and walkability for River Station's vibrant development.
