Brownfields Success Story
Santa Fe , New Mexico - The citizens of Santa Fe partnered to create the Railyard Master Plan and direct the sustainable redevelopment of an essentially abandoned 50-acre railyard site. Their vision honored the Railyard's history and engaged the culture, arts, and landscape of the city. Contaminants, consisting of lead, other metals, as well as petroleum and petroleum products, in the soil and groundwater were characterized through funding from an EPA Brownfields Assessment Grant and Targeted Brownfields Assessment. The New Mexico Environment Department also provided assessment services. A grand opening celebration was held recently to herald this successful blending of live-in artist studios, galleries, museums, farmers' market, retail shops, office space, and over thirteen acres of open space with a park, plaza, and pedestrian promenade. Trains continue to arrive and depart from the depot. The Railyard practices water harvesting and will use other innovative, environmentally responsible systems.
