Strategically located along the Route 202 Corridor in Malvern, Chester County, PA, Uptown Worthington is transforming the site of a former Worthington Steel factory into a national model for the principals of New Urbanism. When complete, the 1,600,000 square foot, Mixed-Use, 100-acre parcel will include 753 luxury residences, 745,000 sq. ft. of upscale, lifestyle retailing and an estimated 185,000 sq. ft. of Class 'A' office space-along with a new tree-lined town center and Main Street, a restored, environmentally-significant creek, parks, gazebos and theaters.
