In most of the developing countries, brown field are competing with time and tide nowadays. As competitors all over the world advance with hi-tech industries, brown field has situated in a dilemma while its competitive advantage can no longer be maintained. As worldwide competitions become more intense and immediate, old industrial areas may pursue to the redevelopment strategies including land use rezoning (recolor) and production revitalization/innovation (reshape). This article, mainly deals with brown field that normally cannot develop its competitiveness, is aimed to establish a mechanism for sustainable advantage of which a losing brown field may compose as capacities. A qualitative model, originally developed from Laffer curve, is formulated to specify a critical point where reshape and recolor is split based on the land use intensity and thereby land use tax. It is found that the redevelopment strategies for a brown field, given other things being equal, may be determined accordingly, which would provide useful references for the public and private sectors as a considerable decision making reference.
