As a fully integrated engineering firm, Arcadian’s broad and diverse team of in-house experts for each building type is well-equipped to meet the varied and often conflicting demands of mixed-use projects, which are designed to accommodate multiple facility uses.
Mixed-use developments are pedestrian-friendly, integrated spaces that typically combine residential, commercial, and institutional elements.
These developments offer attractive business opportunities, as tenants benefit from increased foot traffic, making it easier to attract customers. With diversified portfolios across various property types, mixed-use developments are less vulnerable to the disruptions that affect single-use properties, such as standalone office spaces impacted by the sharing economy.
With growing demand, governments are supporting mixed-use projects through favorable zoning regulations, and lenders are increasingly recognizing these developments as strong investment options due to their risk diversification benefits. Financial REITs and real estate players are also placing more focus on mixed-use projects.
