Plans for Goodnoe tract in Newtown include apartments, retail

Published Friday, August 22, 2025

Newtown Township officials recently received plans for the Goodnoe property in the heart of the township’s boutique business district. A mix of apartments and retail show a four-story building and 73 one- and two-bedroom units on the 3.3-acre parcel along North Sycamore Street. The development, called Goodnoe Homestead, is comprised of 90% apartments with the rest dedicated for retail. The project preserves the 300-year-old Goodnoe farmhouse and a barn silo on the site. Current zoning allows the proposal, but developers Jim Worthington and John Cordisco are seeking a variety of variances, including an exception for the height of the four-story building and a reduction in parking spaces.
