Commercial and Industrial Projects

ECONorthwest has assessed the market for and feasibility of a wide range of commercial and industrial projects ranging from individual developments to commercial centers and industrial parks. ECONorthwest's broad experience in land use planning and urban economics gives it particular insight into opportunities for and constraints on development created by urban growth in the context of land use planning systems in Oregon and Washington. For developers, ECONorthwest's commercial and industrial analyses concentrate on finding the mix of lot sizes, building types, and amenities that will yield the best return given conditions and prices in the market. For public jurisdictions, its evaluations emphasize finding the right mix of lot sizes and tailoring their development codes to match the jurisdiction's objectives for economic development.
