Susquehanna Union Green is a planned pedestrian-oriented town center and Traditional Neighborhood Development. It was envisioned to create a community focal point for Susquehanna Township, with a mix of public greens, commercial/retail spaces, a grocery, hotel, and homes and apartments. The earliest known records indicate that the property was named “Union Green” after its initial conveyance by the proprietors of the Commonwealth. To honor this legacy and the history of Susquehanna Township, the historical name has been revived for the new community.
Community dialogue has driven the planning process for Susquehanna Union Green. In 2017 Susquehanna Township created a new zoning district, Traditional Neighborhood Development (TND-1), solely for this tract. In 2018 the Township unanimously approved the overall site; 24 commercial/retail buildings; a hotel with 110 rooms; a senior-living community; and 40 single-family homes.
At the heart of Susquehanna Union Green is the Central Green. The Central Green will be the scene of lively community activity and programming, such as outdoor movies, yoga on the lawn, food truck festivals, and a pop-up winter village with an ice skating rink.
