We are Great Lakes Blight Works. We are a small team of forward-thinking Midwesterners who believe in the future of the Great Lakes region.

Many small towns (less than 50,000 population) have longstanding vacant properties paired with overstretched planning and community development teams. We are the go-to resource for municipalities looking to directly market their vacant properties to investors and developers.

We are especially excited about creating “Blight Works” local teams, where we workshop and train local talent to begin investing in their communities by taking over vacant, city-owned property and turning them into productive assets.
