| Description: |
As GRU (Gainesville Regional Utilities) transitions its operations into its new headquarters, over 16 acres of land in the heart of the city becomes open for redevelopment. Located in the Power District, a funky, eclectic part of the city poised for resurgence, this area enjoys a prime location adjacent to Downtown, Depot Park, and historic intown neighborhoods. Reintegrating former utility yards back into the fabric of the community is a huge redevelopment challenge; if executed properly, it will strengthen our urban neighborhoods and provide tremendous economic development benefits to the entire community. Much work is underway to help ensure successful, thoughtful redevelopment in the Power District. Behind-the-scenes activities such as outreach, utility coordination, planning, and regulatory framework issues continue, in preparation for GRU’s vacation of the area, which is scheduled for late 2011.
