Join DCBIA, DC BID Council, and Streetsense for an insightful exploration of the strategies and policies necessary to enhance the value proposition of downtown urban environments as places to live, work, and visit. Together with our panelists, we will delve into strategies for advancing office-to-residential conversions and navigating financing challenges and regulatory policies.
We will also discuss what it will take to transform formerly office-centric downtowns into vibrant neighborhoods through public and private investments. The discussion will offer tactical insights, expert speakers, and the chance to network with industry leaders. Join this no-holds barred discussion on how to grease the wheels of office-to-residential conversions both nationally and in our nation’s capital.
This event, hosted at Streetsense headquarters inside the historic Wonderbread factory, will begin with breakfast and networking followed by a panel discussion.
