Abington Township receives applications for a new spa in Keswick Village, Quick Mart in North Hills

Abington Township has received an application for a new spa at 240 Keswick Avenue in Glenside, the former location of Walter’s Barber Shop.

According to township Fire Marshall Chris Platz, no building permits or Use & Occupancy permits have been issued as of today, and no anticipated opening date was provided to township officials.

Glenside/Keswick Nails Spa lives next door at 238 Keswick Avenue. We will be in touch as more information becomes available.

North Hills Quick Mart

In May, Glenside Local reported that a Quick Mart is coming to 2869 Limekiln Pike in Abington Township. Mr. Platz confirmed with us today that a general application as well as an associated Sign Permit application was submitted to the township.

According to Platz, no building permits or Use & Occupancy permits have been issued at this time, and the no anticipated opening date was provided to township officials.


The entity filed as a Pennsylvania Domestic Business Corporation on April 7, according to a listing on Bizapedia.com.

The business will take over the former 7-Eleven convenience store, which closed in February as part of a 444-store shutdown due to a slump in sales, decreased traffic, inflation, and a fall in cigarette sales.
