Areas where we are active have seen an increase in jobs, property values, occupancy rates, and tax revenues, all while maintaining the cultural vibrancy of the surrounding communities. To validate the impact, GBX Group has engaged Rutgers Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy to study the economic impacts of GBX’s historic preservation properties in urban markets throughout the U.S. The school is one of the nation’s key centers for the theory, practice, and research of these impacts.
