Additional Property Attributes

Former Use: Originally developed in the 1800s with a lime making kiln and quarry, the Site later housed an automotive repair shop, filling station, and a metal recycling facility/junk yard known as "Easton Iron & Metal", which went out of business in 2015. Assessment: Environmental site characterization work at the Site has identified that several contaminants exceeded their applicable Pennsylvania residential and nonresidential Sitewide Health Standards (RSHS/NRSHS) in soils and groundwater, and the site has been enrolled in Pennsylvania's voluntary cleanup program ("Act 2"). The cleanup is anticipated to address documented exceedances of heavy metals, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) in Site soils; VOC exceedances of Soil Vapor Intrusion screening values; and heavy metals and Tetrachloroethylene (PCE) in groundwater. Reuse Plan: Site will be renamed The Foundry and redeveloped into a $40M+ mixed-use community with ~10,000 square feet of commercial space and parking on the buildings' first floors, 150+ residential units on the upper floors, and unique architecture.
