This expanse of 15 acres between Cherry and Cleveland avenues, called the Cherry Hill Planned Unit Development, will soon become 117 housing units. The project consists of 94 townhouses that will be ringed by 23 single-family homes, according to plans filed with City Neighborhood Development Services.
