EPA worked with Spartanburg on this report, which presents findings that can be applied to the Northside neighborhood and to similar redevelopment projects, demonstrating how green infrastructure can support and enhance infill, mixed-use development.

project, this effort developed a set of conceptual green infrastructure recommendations to advance the community’s vision. Recommendations are presented at two scales.

Second, the Conceptual Designs (Section 4) develop green infrastructure scenarios for two land use typologies characteristic of the proposed Redevelopment Plan.
