1 Allen-Morrison, Lynchburg, VA Data Matrix and Sustainability Benchmarks (Updated Spring 2010) 1 Standard Benchmarks BENCHMARKS UNITS PRE PROJECT GOAL Property value (Pre/Post)Redevelopment value TBD Annual Tax Revenue 0 Public sector incentives Brownfields, Infrastructure, Other NA Ratio public cost to total redevelopment value NA Land remediated and Acres NA 16.9 acres redeveloped Building area Square feet Allen-Morrison (87,800 sq. ft.) and Thornhill developed/restored (86,400 sq. ft.) (post) ( actsheets/lynchburg_susfs.pdf) Number of jobs created/retained Created/retained (full/part-time) (if available construction/regular) 0 Create local jobs and volunteer opportunities ( 1 The data matrices are intended to present an informal pre-development snapshot of conventional and sustainability-oriented information for each of the U.S. EPA s Brownfields Sustainability Pilots and their surrounding neighborhoods. Information was gathered from the U.S. Census and a variety of preliminary planning documents from 2008 to Given that most of these projects are at the early stages of planning and development, the information below is subject to change. For questions, please contact Christopher De Sousa, chris.desousa@ryerson.ca. Research support provided by Jason Tilidetzke and Kevin Duffy. This work was performed under a subcontract with the University of Illinois at Chicago and made possible by grant number TR from U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
