Title: Principles of brownfield regeneration
Description: Principles of Brownfield Regeneration presents compelling reasons for redeveloping brownfield sites and describes the steps for creating viable land for development or open space. Use of these idle properties is central to a sustainable strategy of thwarting sprawl, preserving or regenerating open space, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and reinvesting in urbanized areas. This is the first book to provide an accessible introduction to the design, policy, and technical issues related to brownfield redevelopment. -- from back cover.
