So whether it's redeveloping dying malls or re-inhabiting dead big-box stores or reconstructing wetlands out of parking lots, I think the fact is the growing number of empty and under-performing, especially retail, sites throughout suburbia gives us actually a tremendous opportunity to take our least-sustainable landscapes right now and convert them into more sustainable places.
所以无论是重新发展废弃的大型购物中心 或是重建停用了的大集装箱似的商场 或是在旧的停车场的地方 重新建造湿地, 我认为关键是 数目不断增加的 腾空的或是表现不佳的 贯穿市郊的 零售场所 其实现在给了我们巨大的潜力来 接手这些最不太合理利用 的地方 并且把它们改造成 利用更合理的地方.
