Editing Ford City, Pennsylvania (section)

=== Future Developments ===
Moving forward, the Borough is expected to see development of the former PPG [[Brownfield land|Brownfields]] in the Southern portion of town. In 2021, Borough Council voted to approve and authorize borough officials to execute an option agreement with the Armstrong County Industrial Development Council for a 120-day term and $1,000 consideration related to 30 acres of real property owned by the borough located along 2nd Avenue at the southern end of the borough adjacent to the river.<ref>{{Cite web |last=apanian@leadertimes.com |date=2021-09-15 |title=Ford City's 'Brownfields' section set to possibly blossom with job opportunities |url=https://www.leadertimes.com/front-page/ford-city-s-brownfields-section-set-to-possibly-blossom-with-job-opportunities/article_6d534f20-fea9-54f6-8bc3-523b804a2eec.html |access-date=2024-09-09 |website=leadertimes.com |language=en}}</ref> Soon after, a 10-acre portion was sold to Belleflex Technologies which neighbors the property. Additionally, a 20-acre portion was sold to Projectile Tube Cleaning Inc. of Manor Township. These businesses are expected to develop the currently vacant land bringing economic opportunities to the Borough. The Northern Brownfields are privately owned, with hopes of future development.
