Allentown Square, located at 295 Maryland St. at West Avenue,
has postponed opening its doors this month. “The problem is funding. My guys
work hard but it’s a slow game when it comes to projects like these,” Robert Neagle,
construction manager of Allentown Square said. “The project is going up pretty
fast but the manpower isn’t there.”
In order for the complex to open this month as scheduled, twice the manpower
would have been needed, according to Neagle. The 54-apartment, $7 million
project will now likely be ready in
March 2017. By Franklin Hagler and Matt Neidhart
