Small Business Owners in Philly Metro are Excited about 2016

Sixty-two percent of respondents to the Small Business Pulse Check conducted by TD Bank said they were “optimistic” or “excited” about 2016 and the overwhelming majority of the small business owners who responded indicated that they would close out 2015 strong, most of which expected to meet or exceed their annual revenue goals.

New Jersey Business reports on the findings of this survey, including local company’s thoughts on local taxes, legislation, hiring patterns, and a number of other small business factors. Read the full report here.

Scudder Falls Bridge Improvements to Begin

Preparation work has begun for the Scudder Falls Bridge construction project slated to begin in 2017. The bridge connects Bucks Co, PA & Mercer Co, NJ. A bottleneck during commute hours on I-95, the span (built in 1959) was recently deemed “functionally obsolete” and is long due for upgrades. Commuters and businesses in both Mercer County and Bucks County will benefit from the work done on the Scudder Falls.  Read more about the project on nj.com.

New to Market: +/-6,798 SF Class A+ Office Space

Suite 250 at 100 PrincetonSouth Corporate Center is now available for lease.

This suite is a unique opportunity in the 100 Building- taking up an entire end of the building, the footprint produces a layout with an above average number of corner offices for a space of it’s size.
