As I understand it, the term "greenfield" was used to designate building something totally anew, on a new site. Its been in use since at least 1976 when I first saw it, but may have been common parlance in the construction and planning professions for some time before that. The term Brownfield is an antonym to greenfield, and I did not hear it used until the 1990's. Peter Strauss Dan Durett wrote: > > Trying to research the genesis of the term brownfield.
