Johnson Consulting, founded in 1996 in Chicago, Illinois, has conducted hundreds of engagements in the U.S., Canada, Central and South America, Asia, Africa, and Europe with a focus on the development of public assembly facilities, hotels and surrounding districts, urban renewal districts, and the broader real estate markets.
Our professionals at Johnson Consulting have worked in the convention, conference, hospitality, and sports consulting fields for over 35 years. The majority of this work is focused on planning, market and feasibility studies, economic and fiscal impact assessments, economic development, strategy development, tax analysis and projections, site selection, development consulting, developer and investor recruitment, as well as downtown and suburban development and redevelopment planning. These engagements involve a variety of land uses, including convention centers, conference centers, hotels, mixed-use development districts, sports facilities, entertainment and tourism, and specialized development.
The majority of our clients are cities and counties; although we also perform studies for private developers and quasi-governmental organizations such as universities, convention and visitors bureaus and authorities. With both our public and private sector clients, we deliver high- quality work in a timely manner. Numerous repeat engagements with several clients are evidence of our reputation for quality and client satisfaction.
We have provided analysis, insight and recommendations for various development and real estate projects, providing both comprehensive evaluation of an entire area and specific evaluation of individual facility concepts and economic development potential. Our expertise allows us to counsel communities on whether development is appropriate, and if so, what should be built, where it should be built, and how to finance and develop the project. Johnson Consulting is noted for providing straightforward opinions and creating meaningful solutions to complex problems.
