Originally, Westinghouse had purchased a large plot of land for future development that extended westward from Alafaya Trail to Rouse Road. The Power Generation Business Unit (PGBU) building was located in The Quadrangle, at 4400 Alafaya Trail. In 1981, the company began to relocate its division headquarters for the Steam-Turbine Generator Divisions from Pennsylvania (turbines from Lester and generators from Pittsburgh) to Orlando, Florida. The company changed its name to Westinghouse Electric Corporation in 1945. Westinghouse's primary products include turbines, generators, motors and switchgear related to the generation, transmission, and use of electricity. In 1889, he renamed his business The Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing Company. Originally called the Westinghouse Electric Company, George Westinghouse (1846-1914) founded his manufacturing company in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on January 8, 1886. It was developed into the smaller J32 and the Westinghouse J34, an enlarged version which produced 3,000 pounds of thrust. The engine's first flight was under a FG Corsair in January of 1944. The J30 initially gave 1,200 pounds of thrust, but improved to 1,600 in production versions. Westinghouse Electric's J30 jet engine, originally known as the J19B, was a simple and robust unit with six-stage compressor, annular combustor, and single-stage turbine.
