Brownfields Area Benefits Estimator (BABE)

Welcome to the BABE project page. Here you will find links to the tools and documentation that together are intended to assist communities in understanding and planning for community and neighborhood centered impacts and benefits associated with brownfields redevelopment. This is a page that will continue to grow and evolve as we release, refine, and update the components.
