Goodwin Procter - Redevelopment

Goodwin Procter - Real Estate Practice


Redevelopment projects provide a foundation for private sector economic recovery and growth. Attorneys in our practice are well-versed in the intricacies of tax increment financing and counsel clients on redevelopment financings for residential, retail and commercial projects.

Redevelopment agencies are a powerful conduit to channel tax revenues back into our broken infrastructure.  We’ve provided creative, effective counsel to municipalities, redevelopment agencies, financing authorities, developers, lenders and investors on many large-scale redevelopment projects in California and throughout the West, including:

  • A major entertainment complex in downtown Los Angeles
  • A $44 million parking project in Hollywood for the Los Angeles Redevelopment Agency  
  •  A 47-acre live/work community in Marin County, California
  • A $28 million terminal facilities for a major cruise line
  • Redevelopment on the former El Toro Marine Base in Irvine, California
  • A 57,000-acre master planned community in Albuquerque, New Mexico

We assist clients on all phases of a transaction, from land acquisition (including condemnation) and disposition of land to local public improvements and tax increment financing.  With a team of experienced lawyers who know the process well, we help both public and private clients successfully realize large-scale redevelopment projects.
