Forest City brings to the table a rare combination of expertise in the design, development, and operation of many different use types — including office, biotech research, retail, residential, hotel, and parking support. Our most successful projects are those in which we integrate some or all of these uses together to create a sense of vitality that could not be achieved with a less synergistic approach.
At University Park, for example, corporate employees experience the dynamism that comes with a 24-hour residential community, residents enjoy the lushly-landscaped parks and open spaces that are financially supported by the commercial space, and everyone shops at the supermarket, eats in the restaurants, and drops off their children at the childcare center.
Our ability to conceive and execute mixed-use projects from within a single organization is critical to ensuring that an appropriate balance is achieved, the needs/desires of the local community are met, and conflict between different groups with divergent objectives is avoided.
