What is the problem?
 “The city is considering purchasing a vacant warehouse in a
blighted section of town. The area was once a busy
manufacturing district along a riverfront near the downtown
area. The city would like to convert the warehouse to a
facility that provides a community service. The goal is to
encourage redevelopment of the area.”
 We need to set the standard in this area in terms of “green”
space. Through building and continual upkeep of the area, we
can begin to change the landscape of the city.
