A restaurant building that’s more than 70 years old and still operating might be demolished and replaced by a self-storage facility in Levittown, PA. SAFStor Old Lincoln LLC submitted plans to change Michael’s Restaurant and Lounge at 935 Old Lincoln Highway in Falls Township into a three-story, 109,650-square-foot mini-warehouse and self-storage building. The plans have not yet been approved and will go through the land-development process.
