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.
