Emergency Crews Becoming Familiar With Malvern's Massive New Atwater Development

MALVERN, PA -- The new Atwater development off of Route 29 is so massive, that emergency crews scheduled an exercise to become familiar with its expansive layout.

The East Whiteland Fire Company took to the streets of Atwater on Monday night to learn more about the area, walk through the interior of the buildings, and plan for response calls should they arise in the area.

Authorities said that Atwater will have 900 residential units when all is said and done. The Haven at Atwater Village, one part of the planned residential development, has already starting renting.

The apartments were about 10 percent leased as of mid-September. Apartment options include one, two, and three bedroom units, ranging from $1,475 to $2,605 per month.

A Wawa is planned near the entrance of the development, in addition to other retail space.
