BROWNFIELDS — RECYCLING SPACE OR NOT LEAVING THE OLD FAMILIAR FOR THE NEW
In the last five years, brownfields have been increasingly tilted in connection with development. The lack of green land for industrial use and trends such as last-mile logistics and the shift of sales to the online realm are naturally accelerating interest in brownfield sites near residential developments. Both the professional and lay public perceive brownfield as a dark area on the map filled with unsightly structures, which is convenient to bypass with a large arch, or place modern buildings here after demolition. In any case, he is not considering recycling the original structure. This prejudice is supported by institutional developers and investors who do not want to adopt a different scenario of using the original properties. At the same time, users are very interested in high-quality recycled spaces not only in industrial sites, especially if quality meets the final price. Demaco's case study will show how the property can be reconstructed in an appropriate way so that the revitalized area generates added value for both the user and the investor.
