Owners and occupiers are doing more now than ever to create quality spaces that have a greater social impact on their own spaces, and the communities they’re situated in. From non-financial objectives that boost retention, to programs that interact with our communities, social value is at the forefront of real estate decision making.


Our experts, Amy Erixon and Arlene Dedier discuss how commercial real estate can be the catalyst for building places and spaces that deliver a sense of well-being, safety, and opportunity to foster better interaction in our communities.
