Broseman, Esquire, and Robert M. Tucker, Esquire, hereby file this Zoning Hearing Board application, and in support thereof states as follows: 1. Name and Address of Applicant/Property Owner. The Applicant/Property Owner is BDN 250 King of Prussia I, LP (“BDN 250”), c/o Mr. Joseph Traynor, Brandywine Realty Trust, FMC Tower at Cira Centre, 2929 Walnut Street, Suite 1700, Philadelphia, PA 19104. BDN 250 recently purchased the property at 250 King of Prussia Road (“Property”), which is the subject of this application. The Property is also known as Delaware County Folio number 36-02-01158-00. A redacted copy of the Deed for the Property is attached hereto as Exhibit A. -1 - 7002539v2 2. Description of Property & Surrounding Area. The Property contains 7.23 (+/-) acres of land and is located on the corner of King of Prussia Road and Radnor-Chester Road. Photos of the Property are attached hereto as Exhibit B. The Property is in the Township’s PLO - Planned Laboratory-Office District (“PLO District”), in close proximity to U.S. Route 30 (Lancaster Avenue) and an interchange with the Blue Route, Interstate 476. Photos of adjoining properties and properties located across King of Prussia Road and Radnor-Chester Road from the Property are attached hereto as Exhibit C. 3. Improvements, Use, and Zoning. The Property contains a multi-story office building (“Building”) that was last used as the Penn Medicine at Radnor facility. The Property also has various parking areas, but those spaces do not fulfill the Code parking requirements for the Building. Penn Medicine at Radnor recently moved to a new facility constructed at 145 King of Prussia Road. The existing conditions on the Property are shown on the plan sheet entitled “Existing Conditions & Demolition Plan” dated 2/18/2021, revised 4/15/2021 and prepared by Landcore Engineering Consultants, P.C. (“EC Plan”). The EC Plan is attached hereto as Exhibit D. The Building was built in the 1950’s as an office building for T.V. Guide. The Building subsequently became the headquarters for the Fidelity Mutual Insurance company and thereafter was devoted to use as the Penn Medicine at Radnor medical offices operated by the University of Pennsylvania Health System (“UPHS”). In the 1980’s Fidelity Mutual became the owner of the adjoining property at 259 Radnor Chester Road (“259 RCR”). Fidelity Mutual redeveloped 259 RCR and provided for shared access and some shared parking between the sites. When the building -2 - 7002539v2 was constructed the Property was zoned C-3 Commercial District but was later rezoned to the PLO District. According to the EC Plan the Property is nonconforming to several Code requirements, including the minimum lot size for the PLO District; setbacks from King of Prussia Road and Radnor-Chester Road; the required setbacks for the other lot lines (opposite King of Prussia Road and Radnor-Chester Road); building height; building dimensions; building area; minimum landscaping areas; and the number of parking spaces. Variances have been granted to prior owners relating to, among other things, parking space size and setbacks. Under the current provisions of the Code the Building would require 936 parking spaces and only 373 spaces are provided.1 As will be described below the proposed plan will significantly decrease the existing parking nonconformity, which is needed to modernize the Building. 4. Prior Zoning Hearing Board Decisions pertaining to the Property. Based on a review of public records pursuant to a Right To Know Request the following prior Zoning Hearing Board decisions appear to pertain to the Property. • Appeal 612 (1958) – variances granted to reduce the required setbacks from King of Prussia Road and Radnor Chester Road. • Appeal 1169 (1972) – variance granted to allow parking within the 50 feet parking setback area. • Appeal 1606 (1982) – variances granted to allow the Building to be served by “compact” parking spaces. 1 According to the Proposed Plan (identified below) there 92 spaces in the existing garage space within the Building and 281 surface parking spaces. -3 - 7002539v2 • Appeal 1690 (1983) – variances granted from slope controls to allow construction of various improvements; Variances granted to allow additional compact spaces and other relief related to the development of the adjoining 259 RCR property. • Appeal Nos.

This paper is posted at ScholarlyCommons. https://repository.upenn.edu/ese_papers/758 For more information, please contact [email protected]. Report on Interstate 476 (The Blue Route) Abstract For fifty earsy Pennsylvanians have been discussing the idea of constructing a new north-south highway in the central part of Delaware County, the suburban county immediately west of the City of Philadelphia. Such a highway originally was conceived as a parkway. The notion never got very far until the mid-1950's. When the federal Interstate Highway System was conceived, a facility in central Delaware County was proposed to connect the Pennsylvania Turnpike (I-276) in Plymouth Meeting, Montgomery County, with the Delaware Expressway (I-95) in Ridley Township, Delaware County. This facility was designated I-476. As conceived, it would constitute the western part of a planned circumferential freeway network around Philadelphia. I-476 is commonly known as "the Blue Route" and also as the "Mid County Expressway." As an interstate highway project, 90% of the cost of I-476 would be covered by federal interstate highway funds allocated to the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA).

  • Pa. Turnpike Bridge Project to Impact Traffic on Interstate 476 in Lower Salford Township
    N E W S R E L E A S E Carl DeFebo Jr., Director of Public Relations and Marketing Media Contact: Mimi Doyle Public Information Manager – East 610-239-4117 Pa. Turnpike Bridge Project to Impact Traffic on Interstate 476 in Lower Salford Township this Month Nighttime construction activities may cause delays between exits 31-44 through November. The Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission advises motorists who travel the Turnpike’s Northeastern Extension (I-476) between Lansdale (Exit #31) and Quakertown (Exit #44) that construction-related activities associated with a bridge replacement project at milepost A31.7 in Lower Salford Township, Montgomery County, are scheduled to begin the week of April 15. A contract valued at $4.2 million was awarded to Allan A. Myers, LP of Worcester, Pa., to replace the Fretz Road Bridge earlier this year. The work area extends from approximately 1.7 miles north of the Lansdale Interchange (Exit #31) in Montgomery County. The contractor anticipates the bridge will open to traffic by mid to late November. Locally, advance warning signs were posted this week alerting motorists that on April 26, Fretz Road will be closed and traffic detoured between Yoder Road and Wambold Road from May through November. Next week, detour signs will be posted along the planned route; passenger and commercial vehicles will be directed over Wambold Road, Main Street (State Route 63), Ruth Road, Clemens Road and Yoder Road to Fretz Road (approximately 2.8 miles). Local access on Fretz Road will be available to and from either direction to the bridge while the detour is in place.

The outer ring symbolizes the region as a whole while the diagonal bar signifies the Delaware River flowing through it. The two adjoining crescents represent the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the State of New Jersey. The logo combines these elements to depict the areas served by DVRPC. Created in 1965, DVRPC provides continuing, comprehensive and coordinated planning for the orderly growth and development of the Delaware Valley region. The interstate region includes Bucks, Chester, Delaware and Montgomery counties in Pennsylvania, and the City of Philadelphia; and Burlington, Camden, Gloucester, and Mercer counties in New Jersey. The Commission is an advisory agency which divides its planning and service functions between the Office of the Executive Director, the Office of Public Affairs, and four Divisions: Transportation Planning, Strategic Planning, Regional Information Services Center, and Finance and Administration. DVRPC's mission for the 1980s is to conduct high priority short term strategic studies for member governments and operating agencies, develop a long range comprehensive plan and provide technical assistance, data and services to the public and private sector. The preparation of this report was funded through federal grants from the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Urban Mass Transportation Administration (UMTA), as well as by DVRPC's member governments.

It has been a long- standing tradition for Troop 189 to camp in the cabin every year in early winter. Much scouting history from the Valley Forge area is on the walls of their cabin. The cabin features a wood-burning stove for heat in the main cabin and a kitchenette to prep meals. There is electricity in the cabin and in the past we have brought a projector and laptop for a Saturday evening movie after dinner. There will be two hikes supported on Saturday. The first and second year Scouts attending Devon 50 will hike the historical Valley Forge National Park Trail.
