TRANSPORTATION AND JOINT DEVELOPMENT NEED NOT ALWAYS BE ON A LARGE SCALE

Although most existing transportation-inspired joint development programs involve substantial public and private investments, projects on a smaller scale can be economically and socially feasible. Therefore investigations of suitable opportunities for joint development should not be restricted to large urban centers. No preconceptions exist concerning the optimal scale within which to promulgate joint development ideas or programs. Comments are made regarding programs in San Francisco; Augusta, Georgia; and Washington, D.C. Tax-increment financing was used as an inducement to encourage joint development at the Embarcadero Station of the Bay Area Rapid Transit.
