Brownfield breaks
Series: Architects' Journal ; 216(12) 3 October 2002, 36(1)Publication details: 2002Subject(s): Summary: Looks at the potential opportunities for development on brownfield sites. The view still exists that brownfield development is complex and not seen as a viable investment because of problems arising from land contamination. However, argues that the disadvantages of developing previously used land are usually outweighed by the benefits which include tax incentives and exemption from landfill tax and stamp duty. Concludes that the financial risk of brownfield development can be reduced by using specialist advisers. References.| Item type | Current library | Call number | Copy number | Status | Barcode | |
