J. Leon Altemose
J. Leon Altemose was a developer and contractor, active in the Valley Forge, Pennsylvania area in the late 20th century. Altemose is known for disputes over his use of non-union employees on a construction project to build Valley Forge Plaza, which eventually became part of the Valley Forge Convention Center.〔Downey, Sally and Jane M. Von Bergen. 16 April 2008, ''Philadelphia Inquirer'', "J. Leon Altemose, controversial contractor, dies at 68".〕〔Teague, Matthew. February 2008 ''Philadelphia Magazine'', "(The Last Union Town )".〕〔Rubin, Debra K. 17 April 2008, ''Engineering News-Record'', "(Open Shop Crusader Leon Altemose Dies at Age 69 )".〕
==Dispute over construction of Valley Forge Plaza==
Altemose owned a construction company he started in 1961 and believed that employees should have a the right to choose if they wanted to belong to a trade union.〔〔 Altemose won an $18-million construction contract in 1972 for a 24-acre hotel, office and retail complex to be built in the suburbs of Philadelphia. Altemose wanted to employ at least a portion of trade employees as non-union. This led to disputes and protests by union supporters.〔
A thousand construction workers arrived at the construction site at dawn on June 5, 1972 in cars and buses chartered by Roofers Local Union No. 20. More than $300,000 of property damaged occurred, including firebombing of equipment and construction trailers. Fire trucks were not allowed to respond because of the chaos at the site. The destruction would continue until midday when the state police arrived in riot gear. On August 17, 1972, Altemose was assaulted by two dozen men in downtown Philadelphia. The protests were estimated to have cost Altemose more than $2 million. They would delay, but not halt, the completion of construction as the hotel would eventually open in September 1973.
