Study Architecture 
ProPEL 
Author(s): Chris Jarrett
The economic boom of the 1990’s coupled with a rising concern of the environment has paved the way to aggressive redevelopment of large sites, contaminated land in the inner city, long shunned as an enormous environmental mess and huge financial expense. But what are the “real” issues at play in these projects? Who is gaining what? Is one metro-metaproblem being exchanged for another? What is the architect’s role in this mess? What alternatives lie ahead? This paper will address these issues and questions in the context of Atlantic Station, a new, intown, 130-acre mixed-use brownfield redevelopment that suggest there’s more ‘in the air’ than meets the eye.
