Developer: Our City Reading

Source: WFMZ, September 11, 2025. Our City Reading obtained a zoning special exception for adaptive reuse at 229 Washington Street. The report places 21 apartments on the third floor of the GoggleWorks 2 expansion. This is the expansion project, not the existing GoggleWorks apartments across the street. Status: Approved refers to the reported special exception only, not a claim of final building permits, completed construction or current occupancy. Those subsequent milestones were not verified as of October 22, 2026. Source text was reviewed through the search index because the news page limited direct automated requests. The city decision also lists 229, 243 and 245 Washington Street; this pin represents the reported 229 address, not the full multi-parcel footprint. Location: U.S. Census Geocoder (Public_AR_Current) matched 229 WASHINGTON ST, READING, PA, 19601. The Census point is a street-address interpolation. Address checked October 22, 2026. Map points are address locations, not surveyed entrances or parcel boundaries.
