Book Brownfields Redevelopment

Download or read book Brownfields Redevelopment written by Joaquin Jay Gonzalez III and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2021-08-26 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In urban planning, a brownfield is a former industrial or commercial site where environmental contamination hinders development. They exist in almost every community--there is probably one in your neighborhood--and state or federal resources can be used to facilitate assessment, cleanup and reuse. Drawing on a range of local and international experiences, this collection of essays focuses on cases where citizens, nonprofits, developers, cities, and state and federal agencies overcame challenges and mitigated risks to redevelop brownfields using leading-edge practices and simple innovations. The Covid-19 pandemic and mass civil unrest of 2020 underscores the importance of health and social justice considerations in future development initiatives.

Book Brownfield Sites III

Download or read book Brownfield Sites III written by C. A. Brebbia and published by WIT Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the problems facing the public and private sectors and the engineering and scientific communities in terms of the decrease of available new land for development purposes. Given the economic and social benefits of brownfields redevelopment, there is a need for guidance on processes that ensure the acceptability and therefore viability of such redevelopment. The preparation of the guidance requires further research as well as the sharing of information, lessons and experience among experts in this field. Featuring papers from the Third International Conference on Prevention, Assessment, Rehabilitation and Development of Brownfield Sites, the text will be vital to practitioners and businessmen in industry and commerce as well as those in research organisations interested in the problems facing the prevention, assessment, rehabilitation and development of brownfields. The papers published in the book are grouped into the following sections: Development Issues; Environmental Assessment; Risk Assessment and Management; Cleanup Methodologies; Case Studies; Community and Public Involvement; Lessons from the Field; Modelling and Assessment; Monitoring of Contaminated Sites.

Book A Brownfield Revitalization

Download or read book A Brownfield Revitalization written by Chen Qu and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In formerly industrial land use areas of major cities like Atlanta, there are many vacant or abandoned properties polluted by heavy metals. Remediation should be undertaken to address environmental issues and restore such sites to usefulness, but many traditional methods are cost prohibitive. Lead, as one of the representative heavy metals, is commonly found in industrial areas, and lead exposure can result in adverse health problems for people who live near these polluted sites. Landscape design strategies of bioremediation are identified to address lead contamination and to provide on-site mitigation and design solutions that contribute positively to rehabilitate environments. The ESB site (owned by ESB, Inc.) is a 9-acre lead-contaminated brownfield site in Atlanta that was previously a lead-acid automobile battery factory. This study will identify bioremediation strategies and landscape intervention which are suitable for the ESB site and the development of a conceptual design for a neighborhood park intended to improve community conditions and to serve as an example for similar redevelopment opportunities.

Book Sustainable Brownfield Development

Download or read book Sustainable Brownfield Development written by Christopher De Sousa and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-07-15 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While industrial and chemical innovations have contributed extensively to human advancement, the darker part of their legacy has been the hundreds of thousands of polluted sites left behind. Governments at all levels have rallied to support the remediation and reuse of these land resources and put many of the nation’s brownfields back into productive use. This book presents two dozen brownfield projects in the United States that have incorporated sustainability, highlighting project features, best management practices, and lessons from the field regarding the underlying policies and practices that enabled these projects to be completed or, in some cases, stalled, altered or abandoned. The case studies represent an array of brownfield projects that aimed to go beyond conventional practice and include a range and variety of end uses (e.g., corner gas stations, industrial, office, residential, brightfields, green space, mixed-use, and transit-oriented developments). The cases investigate site histories, planning and development and examine sustainability characteristics to understand how projects overcame the barriers to brownfield reuse and the implementation of sustainability features and derive a series of lessons learned, including innovative policies, programs, and/or funding mechanisms that helped make these projects work. Sustainable Brownfield Development will be of interest to developers, planners, consultants and community representatives interested in environmental policy, urban planning, community development, ecological restoration, economic development, and parks planning by providing direction and inspiration for those eager to erase the blight of the past and build a more sustainable future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a compilation of diverse, yet homogenic, research papers that discuss current advances in Earth Observation and Geospatial Information Technologies to tackle new horizons concerning the digitization and information management in smart cities’ infrastructures. The book also tackles the challenges faced by urban planners by the new mega-cities and proposes a series of solutions to resolve complex urban issues. It suggests enhancing the integration of disciplines, thus, bringing together architects, urban planners, civil engineers, landscape designers and computer scientists to address the problems that our cities are facing. This book is a culmination of selected research papers from IEREK’s fourth edition of the International Conference on Future Smart Cities (FSC) and the fourth edition of the International Conference on Resilient and Responsible Architecture and Urbanism (RRAU) held online in collaboration with the XMUM, Selangor, Malaysia (2021).
