In case you didn't know there are various programs sponsored by the government that "recyles" land thru various ways. Brownfields is a big part of that program. And areas are not always redevoloped to make ay for a big shopping mall or development. Gardens are built, wet lands etc. I just did a webpage for class on Brownfields youare welcome to look for more info. Plus Ilisted the link to all the class projects that might be of interest to you all.
