Why Redevelopment?

What Makes This Redevelopment Plan Different?
____________________________________

Redevelopment provides Martin with an opportunity to rebuild and revitalize in a flood-safe location. But what makes this redevelopment plan different is that its benefits go beyond the context of flood control and flood management to include:

  • Improves building stock and infrastructure, while providing economic, environmental and quality-of-life benefits to citizens.

  • Promotes accessibility by maximizing vehicular and pedestrian access.

  • Creates revenue and employment opportunities by incorporating retail, commercial and office buildings.

  • Offers a mix of housing types and prices to ensure affordability.

  • Uses sun, light, air and green spaces to create an environmentally sustainable design.
