Shire reverses decision to move headquarters
by Natalie Kostelni-Staff Writer, Philadelphia Business Journal
In a dramatic about face, Shire Pharmaceuticals has decided not to build a new U.S. corporate headquarters at the Atwater Corporate Center in Malvern, Pa., and will stay in its current office facilities in the Chesterbrook Corporate Center in Wayne, Pa.
In a dramatic about face, Shire Pharmaceuticals has decided not to build a new U.S. corporate headquarters at the Atwater Corporate Center in Malvern, Pa., and will stay in its current office facilities in the Chesterbrook Corporate Center in Wayne, Pa.
“We’re no longer moving forward with that and we’re remaining in Chesterbrook,” said Gwen Fisher, spokeswoman at Shire.
The decision came in light of the Shire bringing in Dr. Flemming Ornskov, its new chief executive officer, and his asking his senior employees to analyze its global footprint and its real estate presence based on the pharmaceutical company’s needs. The conclusion was simple:
“We feel fine where we are,” Fisher said.
Those outside of the company who were working on everything from the design and engineering of the new corporate campus received the news yesterday when they were told to cease working on the project. They were stunned. However, even though the company had signed a lease on space that was to be constructed at Atwater, there was a provision that allowed it to back out of the deal without penalty. That deadline was today.
People familiar with the matter were also told that the company was considering whether to remain in the Philadelphia area and possibly relocate elsewhere such as to Massachusetts but that was based on speculation about Shire’s future. The company has been rumored on and off over the years to be a takeover target, which is a reflection of an industry-wide consolidation trend. Earlier this month, Shire’s new CEO outlined his strategy for the company’s growth as an independent entity. That strategy involves focusing on five core product categories.
Shire (NASDAQ: SHPGY) announced last October that it would relocate to Atwater, bringing to an end a process that started in 2011 when the company launched an evaluation of its space options. The company considered possibly moving its North American headquarters to New Jersey or Delaware but decided to stay in the Philadelphia region. Shire’s regional operations have grown from a few hundred employees in 2004 to nearly 1,500 people.
Its original decision to move out of Chesterbrook, where it occupies 425,000 square feet, meant a gaping hole would have been left in that corporate center when it would have moved by the end of 2015. That apparently is no longer the case.

Temple Health to Build Ft. Washington Facility
Temple University Health System is getting ready to make another splash in the suburbs as it continues efforts to expand beyond North Philadelphia.
Renovations are under way for a $4 million medical complex in Fort Washington, Pa., that will house an urgent-care center along with primary-care and specialty-care services.
“You can call it an ambulatory-care center; some people call it a medical mall,” said Adam Edelson, Temple health system’s vice president for business strategy and development. “We are working to become more accessible to local communities in local markets. … We want to make accessing the care Temple provides more convenient.”
The 29,000-square foot medical center will occupy two floors in an existing office building on Pennsylvania Avenue near where the Pennsylvania Turnpike and Route 309 meet. The property’s landlord is paying an unspecified amount toward the needed renovations.
The first floor will be home to Temple’s fourth ReadyCare urgent-care center, the first of which opened in 2009 at its former Northeastern Hospital in the city's Port Richmond section when that facility was converted to outpatient care. The ReadyCare centers provide fast treatment for health conditions that need immediate attention, but are not life-threatening. Other space will be used for primary-care and specialty services in area such as orthopedics, cardiology, vascular care, neurology, neurosurgery, urology and bariatrics. Temple also plans to open a diabetes center at the site.
“We’ll be bringing to Fort Washington the type of high-end care that people will travel for when they need it,” Edelson said. “We are not looking to [duplicate] care people can get at their local community hospitals.”
Edelson said Temple selected Fort Washington as the site for its latest health center because its research showed the people in the area were going to local hospitals and into Center City and beyond for health services.
“We saw this market as a tremendous opportunity for us,” he said.
Temple health system’s push beyond North Philadelphia began when Dr. Larry Kaiser took over as CEO in 2011. In his first interview with the Business Journal after taking office, Kaiser said one of his goals was to build the Temple health-care brand by establish delivery sites throughout the entire region. “We want to plant the Temple ‘T’ in a number of locations,” he said.
During the past two years, Temple health system has:
• Opened offices in Oaks, Pa., with a lung center program and orthopedic services;
• Opened a ReadyCare urgent-care center in Northeast Philadelphia at site where it also provides orthopedic-care services;
• Opened a women’s-care center at Solis University in Elkins Park;
• Opened a ReadyCare Center in Jenkintown; and
• Added gastroenterology and neurology care at its Center City office, which already provide urology services.
