The Uwchlan Township Planning Commission held an informational public meeting on June 17 to discuss the proposed development of 237 acres of land commonly known as the Lionville Station Farm property. According to the township website, in October 2024, Downingtown Area School District (DASD) announced it had entered into a sales agreement with Rockwell Development Group for the land. Rockwell has submitted a zoning amendment proposal to establish a planned residential development (PRD) zoning overlay on the property. A tentative planned residential development plan — which Rockwell has not yet formally submitted — calls for approximately 570 homes, 66 affordable apartments, approximately 100 acres of open space, and a natatorium (swimming pool) and nature trail. DASD purchased the land in 2003 from Siemens Medical Solutions for $22 million, and is looking to sell it to Rockwell for $64 million. “We have in our agreement with the school district that if it becomes housing, it would be 55-plus, age restricted,” Rockwell president Greg Lingo said at the public meeting.
