Business of Site Selection Before Going to Sleep!


I know we have our birds to guide us to a perfect site, I know some of us are already set our eyes on empty lots here and there, and I know some of us still contemplating where we go from here to locate our programmatically developing projects.
I have entered a search on google for 'site selection' and, to my minor surprise, discovered that this is a billion dollar business on global scale.
I mean, consultants will find you sites to develop your buildings, tire factories, steel mills, dams, schools, hospitals, there are even memorandums on Mars landing site selections and options!
You name the project, and there will be a site for it appearing soon enough, for a price of course.
There are also public programs to read the titles, if you would, and programs for immigrant communities.
Some of the criteria is useful to us and some criteria we can not apply anywhere near to our projects. Nevertheless, I just wanted to share fine art of site selection for your abstractions and further considerations. I know you will be sleeping good with this material!
Isn't studying architecture great?
