A Tale Of Two Bases
Critics of a base reuse plan in Orlando, Florida have begun pointing to Denver's current reuse plan as an example of a more balanced approach.
Baldwin Park, the proposed community intended for the former site of the Orlando Naval Training Center, is facing criticism from adjacent communities and city residents. Opponents cite the unprecedented financial incentives given to the developer, and the inadequate traffic plan. Denver, Colorado has taken an entirely different approach to a similar type of reuse plan by leaving the land in public control, which some feel is more favorable to the interests of the city at large.
