PROJECT APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY COLLABORATIVE AND RESULTS ORIENTED We are proactive and our team has a depth of experience in preparing actionable redevelopment strategies and plans that are grounded in economic reality. All of our team members are highly experienced in working collaboratively with our clients and project stakeholders. Our objective is to capitalize and build on the development momentum and the success that has been achieved thus far in Downtown Albany and create an inspiring vision for the future. Our approach will be to cast a wide net to take advantage of the collective knowledge and experience of the Capitalize Albany Corporation, business owners and operators, public and private sector and institutional stakeholders, and community organizations—all with important interests in seeing Downtown Albany achieve its highest potential. The input and ideas and suggestions that we receive from these organizations and individuals will be an integral part of the analysis and the ultimate redevelopment strategy and implementation plan that our team will develop. PROJECT MANAGEMENT AKRF has project management experience overseeing and coordinating large multi-disciplinary teams. The firm has over 30 years experience in working on large-scale urban redevelopment projects addressing the wide range of complex issues associated with the planning, design, and implementation. We draw upon our wide range of technical capabilities and anticipate and creatively solve the many challenges that are a part of each project and we often lead large-scale planning and redevelopment studies. For example, we are currently leading a multi-disciplinary team that is preparing the master plan and the Step 2 Brownfield Opportunity Area (BOA) Nomination Study application for the Flushing Willets Point Corona LDC’s 60-acre redevelopment plan to encourage mixed-use development that expands the Downtown Flushing, New York to the waterfront with emphasis on designing for pedestrian and public waterfront access. SKILL SETS OF THE AKRF TEAM Members of this team have worked together and share a common consulting philosophy—to interpret client needs and create memorable, implementable development solutions. We bring a balanced perspective, grounded in the realities of finance, market support, design, and implementation. All are essential skills required to crystalize the vision and create a strategic implementation plan.
