How Smart Tenants Lease Brownfields
January 27, 2005
Increasingly today more prime locations for tenants are situated on land that was previously used for industrial or commercial uses and now has real or perceived environmental contamination. As these often called "brownfield" sites are redeveloped, they become attractive locations for leased space. These sites can be in urban centers where available space for development is scarce. The location can be convenient for a developed market of customers which a tenant can capture from absent competitors. Where once a tenant might not consider an investment in such a tainted location, now a tenant must avoid the temptation to overlook the risks. These risks do not apply only to industrial tenants or ground lessees. How a tenant evaluates and manages the risk will determine if a lease of brownfield property is a smart decision.

The same is the case with respect to product liability. Given the proliferation of product liability lawsuits, due diligence should no longer be thought of as a tool used exclusively in mergers and acquisitions ("M&A"). Rather, it should become an integral part of the corporate culture.
