<strong>Urban</strong> Marketplace has shown leadership in promoting the<br />
creation of thriving communities in underserved areas. The<br />
<strong>Urban</strong> Marketplace 2007 theme “Where is LA Headed?”<br />
presaged the uncertain real estate market that took hold in the<br />
Fall of 2007. Thus, the on-going dilemmas faced by underserved<br />
markets in relationship to credit availability and recessionary<br />
sub-economies began spreading to the broader economy. The<br />
specific theme for <strong>Urban</strong> Marketplace 2008 was “Sustainable<br />
Development in the <strong>Urban</strong> Marketplace: How Green $$$ is<br />
Green? - Case Studies from Culver City, Hollywood, and<br />
Santa Monica.” Held on March 19, UM 08 attracted over 700<br />
attendees to hear a keynote address by Lance Williams, Ph.D.,<br />
LEED AP, Executive Director, U.S. Green Building Council,<br />
<strong>Los</strong> <strong>Angeles</strong> Chapter, in which he asked ‘Where is the Dr.<br />
Martin Luther King, Jr. of Green?’ <strong>Los</strong> <strong>Angeles</strong> City Council<br />
President Eric Garcetti moderated a panel that included an<br />
architect, a contractor and a developer, each discussing their<br />
green and sustainable projects from the perspective of their<br />
respective disciplines. UM 08 had twenty-two roundtables<br />
with nearly 50 speakers and 68 exhibitors. Thus, even in a<br />
down economy <strong>Urban</strong> Marketplace 2008 continued to attract<br />
attendees, exhibitors and roundtable speakers.<br />
