Join us at Green Drinks, talk with First Selectman Mike Tetreau and meet Kurt Wittek, principal of Blackrock Realty and learn about Fairfield Metro Center and smart growth. 

Kurt Wittek, principal of Blackrock Realty, the developers of Fairfield Metro Center, will discuss the benefits of encouraging and supporting development around mass transit. Placing employment, housing and retail at a transit hub helps reduce traffic congestion, greenhouse gas emissions and travel times while increasing efficiency. The town of Fairfield's new transit overlay zone has positioned Fairfield as a model for smart growth and economic development for the region.

Kurt Wittek will share Blackrock's vision to transform this once dormant, 35-acre brownfield site into a vibrant campus of sustainable LEED Gold certified green buildings and open spaces. Learn more about the dramatic progress that has been made to date, and exciting plans for the next phase of the development.

Other guests include GreenTowns, North American Power, Sustainable Fairfield and Live Green CT!
