From Contamination to Recreation: Bowling Green’s Transformation | Brownfield Redevelopment Webinar

This webinar explores Bowling Green’s recent brownfield redevelopment success - transformation of a landfill into a dynamic recreational space, and designed to promote play, eco-tourism, and improved riverfront access. We learn how local leaders and stakeholders worked together to turn an environmental challenge into an opportunity for economic growth and outdoor recreation. Our guest speakers talk about their experience in conducting a corridor study, and how community engagement shaped their redevelopment plans. They also share their experiences navigating the redevelopment project from assessment and vision to funding a multi-phase project. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from Bowling Green’s success story and take away actionable lessons for your own brownfield projects!
