We brought out the big guns for this one. 💪 Last month Topology's Christopher Colley and William Kurzenberger were invited to speak at the New Jersey Redevelopment Authority workshop "Exploring Effective Models and Strategies for Land Reuse" at Thomas Edison State University. 👨🏫 They offered lessons learned in their work redeveloping challenging sites and discussed some case studies to help the audience understand how to apply those lessons to their own redevelopment challenges. 🏗 "Sharing capital ideas in the State capitol" as Will so aptly put it. #njredevelopment #njdevelopment #redevelopmentplanning #njplanners #njplanningfirm

"Hope aint a tactic" As I was watching this clip today I thought of the distress in the suburban office building market. I see a lot of investors and owners on the sidelines "hoping" for a quicker recovery or some economic windfall. A lot of these class B and C office buildings are prime for redevelopment with multifamily entitlements. I'm not talking about converting an office building, but about repositioning the land with multifamily zoning and entitlements. The multifamily land values are still pretty strong and that market is expected to fully recover much quicker than the office market. Multifamily entitlements are what we do. Let us help you.

📢 We're taking action! AHSS has officially reached out to Stirling Council regarding the recent demolition of the George Christie Memorial Clock in Allan Park. As advocates for historic buildings, we're deeply concerned about the loss of this listed landmark within the King's Park Conservation Area. We're seeking answers from the council: ❓ Why wasn't a secure barrier erected around the clock tower to assess structural issues before demolition? ❓ Was Historic Environment Scotland's heritage management team consulted? ❓ What measures are in place to prevent such mismanagement in the future? ❓ Have original materials been preserved for stone matching? ❓ Are original drawings accessible for the rebuilding process? ❓Is an appropriately skilled team in place for the rebuilding? Stirling Council have responded and provided the report which was presented to Council on 5 October 2023 and Special Audit Committee on 23 November 2023.

Bostrom’s task is to decide whether in a solved world, we will be redundant. He distinguishes between shallow redundancy, where there are no jobs for humans, and deep redundancy, where there are no tasks, including pastimes, that it is worthwhile for us to undertake. https://lnkd.in/dUaW7Spe

Did you know that the first urban highway in America is right here in #Detroit? The Davison Freeway, completed in 1942, not only revolutionized transportation but also transformed countless lives and reshaped the entire real estate landscape nationwide. Beyond Detroit, the Davison Freeway set a precedent for highway construction across America. It influenced the design and implementation of the national highway system, enhancing mobility, fostering economic growth, and connecting communities nationwide. A true milestone in American infrastructure! 🚀🏙️🚗

When you hear the term “zoning,” your thoughts might turn to arcane regulations, inscrutable maps and byzantine processes. But it doesn't have to be this way. Your community’s zoning ordinance is one of its most powerful tools to implement planning goals, achieve housing objectives and foster economic development.
