This!  Portland should focus on this instead of listening to out of state land owners who refuse to adapt to the new normal.   Instead of listening to the whiny commercial building owners complain about teleworking we should focus on building communities that support local business and affordable housing 24/7! Thousands of square feet available, plenty of jobs downtown, affordable housing via adaptive reuse seems like a win win if we replaced the housing that was one prominent in an area of need.  It just seems like the easiest solution is often ignored when the elite have to maybe make an effort.

Chandler, AZ Economic Development: Infill and Redevelopment Forum. Heather Personne, Rommie Mojahed and Manjula Vaz shared insights and trends in the Pandora’s box that can be redevelopment projects. Downtown Chandler is evidence of successful redevelopment. Michael Pollack has evidenced this for decades. But what does that look like? What can be done with the people that are already there to help them be a part of the vision, success? City of Mesa has shown success with it’s diversity of its submarkets, giving each area an identity, for example Longbow or the Asian District. By doing so the community support and involvement has increased. The interest by complimentary uses is peaking. Redevelopment translates to surprises. It isn’t for those that cannot handle a curve ball. Keeping an opportunistic mindset and an optimistic attitude is key to navigate theses waters. #redevelopment #infill# #chandler #arizona City of Chandler Economic Development City of Chandler, Arizona Women in Commercial Real Estate - #womenincre Evolve Ventures, LLC CRE8 Advisors Gammage & Burnham GPS Commercial Advisors

Rather than subsidizing stadiums and kowtowing to conventioneers, #Chicago ought to be resourcing its extraordinary BIPOC artists and entrepreneurs, according to an opinion piece by PSP’s Philip Barash that was recently published in Crain's Chicago Business. They are shaping Chicago’s narrative for the next generation. They serve as global ambassadors for Chicago’s brand. And they are undoubtedly the city’s most valuable asset. In his article, Philip makes the case for celebrating and investing in Chicago’s culture-makers. He offers a counterpoint to all the pearl-clutching about Chicago’s reputational challenges. And he argues that the cities that are successfully repositioning themselves are those that recognize the assets already embedded in their communities. #opinion #cities #economicempowerment #publicsphereprojects
