ULI Advisory Services Panel to Make Recommendations for Implementing D.C.’s Ambitious Climate Goals
Under the Clean Energy D.C. Omnibus Amendment Act, the District is planning to move entirely to renewable electricity by 2032, with the goal of cutting the city’s greenhouse gas emissions in half by that year as part of its broader commitment to becoming entirely carbon neutral by 2050.

Preserving the Past while Building the Future in Philadelphia
In the six years since Philadelphia began to slowly reverse decades of population loss, the city has seen its share of real estate development controversies.
