Using Placemaking to Create Value.

Placemaking is the art and science of curating memorable experiences to create emotional connections between a physical space and the people who occupy it. We help you build a platform for your space—be it a mixed-use development, public park, entertainment district, or neighborhood—to become a place. Agora Partners’ approach to creating economic, cultural, and social value from real estate combines comprehensive activation strategies with private-sector management methods to generate revenues and control costs.

Merging Innovative Tools from Urban Planning and Real Estate Development.

Agora Partners provides solutions for challenging planning and real estate scenarios by engaging stakeholders, fixing under-performing or inefficient management structures, identifying unique opportunities to generate revenue, and by employing strategies to unlock public/private partnerships. Agora Partners executes downtown and neighborhood turnarounds to increase business viability, livability, sustainability, and economic and social resilience.

Focusing on the Public Realm.

The public realm of any project represents an untapped resource to create value, and its vitality is the most critical part of visitors’ first impressions. We combine market analysis and community engagement to make sure your project’s indoor and outdoor public spaces are responsive to the needs of your visitors, keep them engaged, and attract them over and over again.
