What is Urban Infill Development?
Infill development is the process of developing vacant, underused, or abandoned areas in a city. These include older neighborhoods, downtowns, and business districts or areas that are already largely developed.
What are Brownfield Sites?
Brownfield sites are often deemed “publicly undesirable” areas that are considered too costly to develop.
What are the Advantages of Development on Brownfield Sites?
Brownfield sites already have utilities and infrastructure in place that’s been paid for by a public or private sector, so it makes fiscal sense to develop there. The benefits here include existing roads, water, sewage, internet, gas, and electricity.
Mixed-use development in brownfield sites could increase property values and generate more property tax for these underdeveloped areas while encouraging local property development.
Most brownfield properties are in areas that are close to major thoroughfares and within walking distance of local communities, making them a desirable location to develop.
