Officials at the Harmony School will break ground at the site of the new Harmony School building in Forrestal Village on Monday, August 23 at 11 a.m.
In May, the state Department of Environmental Protection approved the clean-up efforts on the parcel across Merwick Road, a site smaller than its existing 12,311-square-foot building, where the Harmony School will construct a new 10,000-square foot facility.
The Harmony School is a private pre-K, pre-school, and daycare center serving children ages 6 months to 6 years old.
This past fall, Plainsboro officials reported that crews had scraped the old soil from the ground, put into an area that was approved by the DEP, and imported clean soil to cap the site, which was once a nursery where pesticides were used.
The no further action letter from the DEP allowed The Harmony School to relocate into the new building on Merwick Road. The Eden Institute, having outgrown its current space in West Windsor, will be moving into the space vacated by Harmony.
