Honeywell Inc. Process
Control Division
Fort Washington, Pennsylvania
The Road to Reuse
~~~
This 67-acre site was owned
and operated by Honeywell
Inc. from 1965 until 1986.
During that time, Honeywell
manufactured instruments
and control systems for
industry. In 1986, the facility
was sold to 1100 Virginia
Drive Associates. Honeywell
continued to lease a portion of
the facility for manufacturing
of electronic controls and
mechanical valve assemblies
until March 1993, when all of
Honeywell's manufacturing
operations were transferred to
other locations. In addition,
Honeywell continued to lease
a portion of the facility for
office space until 2006.
On August 18, 1995,
the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA)
and Honeywell entered into
an "Administrative Order
on Consent" to provide for
final corrective measures
Approximate total acres

at the facility. Honeywell
continues to operate the
groundwater extraction
and treatment system and
monitors the performance of
the system until cleanup levels
are attained. In addition, a
vapor intrusion evaluation
was completed for the facility
in 2006. This evaluation
found that, based on available
information and site-specific
modeling, risks from any
intruding vapors at the facility
under the current use are
reasonably expected to be
acceptable.
In 1993, the majority of the
facility was transformed into
the Fort Washington Expo
Center. The Expo Center had
hosted some of the region's
biggest consumer and trade
shows, and at 290,000
square feet, was the largest
such suburban venue in the
northeastern United States.
The Expo Center closed in
2006 after the building was
sold to Liberty Property Trust
who renovated the center into
the Fort Washington Office
Park. The office park—which
can accommodate 2,800
employees—is now leased to
GMAC Mortgage who took
over the space in 2007. DeVry
University also occupies
103,000 square feet of the
office park.
