Abstract Urban growth is considered nowadays as an inevitable, changing process. In this domain, one of the most necessary concerns is determining its suitable direction and suitable physical expansion in order for responding to both today and future necessities; owing to the fact that this subject affects not only urban-related policies, but also socio-economic and environmental scopes in many urban districts. Accordingly, with regard to limited land for growth, alongside with uncontrolled growth born problems, Smart Growth has attained attention as an important strategy; the growth which has the least harms to the environment and provides a safe city for living. One of the approaches in Smart Growth is having Brownfields in view. In such approach attempts are made to reusing polluted abandoned urban fields. Forgetting such lands leads to serious environmental, social and economic problems and consequently affects the whole city. On the other hand, Brownfield Redevelopment improves spatial and physical qualities of the city and, therefore, is a key element in moving toward sustainable communities. In this research, using descriptive, procreative and case study method, objectives and advantages of Brownfield Redevelopment is scrutinized and managing such fields is determined. Afterwards, for acquiring deeper cognition we introduce a sample experience in England and explain how a Brownfield has changed to a sport complex which is in accordance with many sustainability criteria. In the end, a few actions are extracted in order to shed light on optimized reuse of such lands.
