2003 Conference Session

[Cardinal]

OK, I'll bite. I would like to propose a session for the Denver APA conference, on infill and redevelopment projects in small and rural communities. I'm thinking to discuss a few case studies, noting some of the ways in which these differ from the more widely known "big city" projects. Anyone else want to join with me in this session, on the same or complimentary topic?

Sounds interesting

I have a great case study from Hartford, WI but I was hoping to take a breather and not present two years in a row! I'd be happy to but the case together for you, though.

BTW - It's the redevelopment of a downtown canning factory for community center, performing arts center, and Wisconsin Auto Musuem.

Thanks. I'd love to hear more about it.

How small is small? What population size are you targeting?

Thanks. I'd love to hear more about it.
