Abstract:This article discusses the possible use of eco-industrial parks by local authorities as a means of place promotion. The authors interviewed people associated with operational and planned North American eco-industrial parks. It is found that in practise, eco-industrial ideals are often compromised as parks pursue disparate strategies to overcome differing obstacles to economic development.
