This article is for subscribers only.
DuPont Co. is moving to the suburbs after an activist shareholder criticized its ownership of the landmark DuPont Building once visited by luminaries such as Charles Lindberg and John F. Kennedy.
Executive offices will relocate to its Chestnut Run Plaza campus from downtown Wilmington, Delaware, effective July 1, the company said today in a statement. DuPont’s performance chemicals unit, which is being renamed Chemours Co. and spun off, will own the building and use it as temporary headquarters.
