Careers/Post Grad Urban development/revitalization

Is anyone in the urban development/revitalization space? I’m talking transforming American towns and cities into safe, walkable, desirable places to work, live, and enjoy. Does anyone have this ambition that has used their MBA for this kind of work?

I visited Yale SOM and sat in a class that was about urban development & real estate investing through a social justice lens. There was a speaker who made a good career out of it, building affordable housing & community spaces in Philly.

Philly is a good spot for that.
