Whoa. Do you know what happened with that initiative? I’m always looking for NY Urban Development Corporation style examples.

Other similar programs also often use tax abatements/exemptions (ATL, Chattanooga, Etc.) to lower operating expenses. Much of ATL’s work is focused on public land which can lower total development costs. Fingers crossed for Chicago

I enjoyed the historical / semi sociological work Jenkins does about SF bond financiers in that book
