Brownfields are former industrial or commercial sites that may be contaminated due to prior use that often present complex histories and environmental challenges. These properties can be more difficult to redevelop compared to undeveloped land or greenfield sites, but they offer potential due to their strategic locations. They are often situated near highways and railways. Additionally, many brownfields already have access to utilities, making them prime candidates for revitalization.
The summit offers an in-person chance to connect with partners, attend expert-led sessions, and be part of transforming the region’s underutilized properties.
Spencer Levy of CBRE Global will provide the keynote address and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Region 2 Director Michael Martucci will share economic trends and insights on development. The summit also features panels on economic development, legal issues, capital resources, site assessments, and community preparation for redevelopment.
With more than 40 networking and resource tables, participants will have the opportunity to engage with experts and partners to explore more resources and strategies for brownfield redevelopment.
