Hundreds of acres of centrally-located empty land is more of an asset than using it as an airfield, which is low-use industrial land even if it is busy.

Is there any reason this brownfield land would be anymore desirable than lets say the quarters? The area around north downtown?

Not really the land itself, but the quarters has planes buzzing over it constantly because it is directly in the line of the busy CCA runway. Close the airport completely, and that land becomes more desirable for two reasons - no height restrictions, and no low-flying planes buzzing overhead.
Removing the airport makes downtown land more desirable.
