About Urban Smart Growth

Our team is made up of passionate family and community oriented professionals

We believe in enhancing communities to breathe life back into old worlds. Whether it is a factory, school, warehouse or other complex, we believe in bringing new opportunities to these structures so that they can flourish again under new operations.

Founded in 2004, Urban Smart Growth is an innovative real estate development and management company committed to the principles of smart growth. With a mission to create diverse, sustainable and successful communities, we advocate transit-oriented, bicycle-friendly land use. Our goals are to achieve a unique sense of community and expand the range of transportation, employment, and housing choices while preserving and enhancing natural and cultural resources.
