GREAT CITIES DO NOT HAPPEN OVERNIGHT
CREATING PLACE AND PROSPERITY REQUIRES PATIENCE
.webp)
Historic buildings, quaint parks, pre-automobile urban density and nostalgia for a once-thriving neighborhood are building blocks for repurposing and rebirth.
Detroit and Cincinnati, former powerhouses of industry and
commerce, repurposed hundreds of buildings and sparked interest in long-moribund
neighborhoods with patient, methodical public-private partnerships.
Other cities worked with local REALTOR® Associations that
leveraged National Association of REALTORS® (NAR) grants and resources to focus
on pedestrian safety, walkability, small businesses, transit-oriented
development and other tools that improved quality of life and property values
before things got really bad.
