80 more apartments coming to Readington. Here's where
READINGTON - A plan to build 80 affordable-unit apartments in the Three Bridges section in the far southwestern corner of the township has been approved by the township Planning Board.
After hearing concerns from residents about sidewalks, landscaping, fencing and buffering, the Planning Board has voted unanimously to approve the plan by Three Bridges Holding, part of Conifer Realty.
The plan calls for development of the vacant 20-acre property that fronts on northbound Route 202 and backs on Railroad Avenue west of High Street in the Three Bridges section.
The plans propose seven residential buildings and a 3,590-square-foot community building.
The community will have 14 one-bedroom units, 45 two-bedroom units and 21 three-bedroom units.
Access will be from Route 202.

The project is part of a redevelopment plan adopted by the Township Committee in November 2022 to help Readington meet its affordable housing goal.
The property is owned by the township.
Conifer, with its New Jersey office in Mount Laurel, owns and manages more than 15,000 multifamily apartments in 10 communities in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Maryland.
This will be Conifer's second affordable housing project in the Route 202 corridor between Somerville and Flemington.
Conifer developed the Red Rock Preserve affordable apartments at the intersection of Old York Road and Route 202 at the Readington border.
