Аннотация:A huge surplus of poorly planned vacant lots presents a vexing land-use problem through out much of the U.S. The most significant problems occur within large pre-platted sub divisions where, decades ago, distant buyers purchased potential homesites in ill-conceived land developments.

The options explored in this re search may alleviate some of the problems that large preplatted subdivisions have created.
