Impact Based Real Estate Development and Crow Sourcing Placemaking with Sean McLean

In this episode I interview Sean McLean, Managing Partner at MPact Collective, a real estate development firm based out of New York, NY. Join me as Sean takes us through the land development process his firm uses to create inclusive communities based on the local economics of the community. Sean brings deep wisdom from many years working in real estate development and getting communities to have ownership in the outcomes of the area they inhabit. This may well be one of my top 5 favorite interviews.
