Urban redevelopment began in 1974 with a 5.6 million dollar grant from the government. The borough began buying local real estate and building more office buildings.

The Blue Route (Route 476) also connect Conshohocken with both Route 76 and the PA Turnpike, which makes it ideally located.

With the continued development of new businesses along the Schuylkill and new parking structures, Conshohocken has never been more prosperous. Conshohocken has the best of both worlds-great economic opportunity and a small town community.
