Brass Factory to Regional Mall: A Model Brownfield
Publication: Risk-Based Corrective Action and Brownfields Restorations
Abstract
This paper details a portion of the story of how a former 173 year old urban brass mill site was transformed into a thriving new regional shopping mall. Why was this site selected? What obstacles had to be overcome? Who were the stakeholders in the process and what held them together? Who paid for the building demolition, remediation and site improvements? What were the environmental issues and how were they defined and then dealt with? How were these issues coordinated with the traditional development issues and resolved? What did we learn and where are we going with this thing we call brownfields?
