A new Devon Self Storage facility is being developed on Delsea Drive at the site of the former Liscio’s Bakery facilities.
The plans for the self storage facility at 124-128 Delsea Drive include a new two-story drive-thru self storage building that will connect to the existing older warehouse structure (which will also be used for self-storage).
Recently the former free-standing retail store building on the site (closer to the Delsea Drive roadway) was demolished.
Currently, workers are focused on the larger warehouse-style building at the rear of the property, removing all exterior walls and roofing likely to have new walls and roof installed.
And of course, Liscio’s is still a very successful Gloucester County Bakery, experiencing unprecedented growth in the last 20 years which has caused them to move to large facilities.
Liscio’s previously relocated core bakery production to a much larger facility on Ellis Street. Additionally, earlier this year Liscio’s was granted approval for plans to develop a replacement retail store in Glassboro, at the site of the former Save-A-Lot grocery. That location will also have some bakery capacity, as well as product storage.
Devon Self Storage appeared before the Glassboro Zoning Board twice, in 2021 and 2022.
It appears this was a two-step approval as originally the front bakery building and the warehouse building were two different tax properties, which first needed to be combined into one to support the new self storage facility development.
From township documents, the warehouse facility which is seeing partial demolition right now will have the majority of that building remaining, and it will be incorporated into a new self storage building that will be constructed on the other portions of the property.
