9th Street station (SEPTA)

[1] Four retention ponds filter stormwater runoff from the parking lots to avoid polluting groundwater.

[7] Around 2007, a development agreement for the former American Olean Tile Company factory established space for a future train station at 9th Street in northeast Lansdale, Pennsylvania to support transit-oriented development at the factory site.

[9] 400 of the 497 spaces at Lansdale will be unavailable during construction of the garage, necessitating an increase in parking at other locations.

[7] Over the next months, SEPTA began planning a small station at the site using internal staff, intending to create a small and inexpensive station that could be in place for the garage construction but remain afterwards to serve the redevelopment.

[2] The Lansdale Borough council approved the plans later that month, clearing the way for construction beginning in the spring.

Construction of the parking garage at Lansdale station in July 2016. 9th Street station was opened to provide alternate parking capacity during the garage construction.
