Thank,s Video coming next.

Great shots.    Really building super close to the property line.  I hope those two families will get along well.  Will the distance between those two house meet your County Fire Code?

In Staten Island the average lot is 50ft by 100 for a 3 bedroom home. That's standard. Lot's of fences. This one is pushing the boundaries. Usually 10 to 20 ft on each side.

The minimal distance from eave of house to property line has to be a minimum of 10 feet here.  This gives at least 20 feet from eave to eave for side by side houses.  Not really a long distance when you think about how far fire can travel when it is windy and the fire is fully blazing.  

Yeah, those are small lots but since no more land is being made you have to build on what you can I suppose.  

I'm certainly glad I was able to get my own land.  Closest neighbor is about 4 miles away.

Nice, The builders here only think about profitability.

I saw it,   nicely done.  

Amazingly complex.  That's a lot of timber

And a lot of house built into a small lot. It was a simple 2,000 square foot ranch before this.

Thank you. I sent it to the builder to see if I can get some of his work.

Quite a modification!

The American Dream ( a home) keeps getting larger and larger.

We downsized, last time we moved.  Only two of us at home now.

I have one son left in the house. When he moves on we will probably do the same.

That's a great idea.

You never know. There is lots of opportunity in construction but they are hard to get a hold of.

Smaller property = less maintenance

I am all for that every time I mow the lawn.

Amen to that.

They do here also but so far no variances have been granted for building houses closer together.  I hope it stays that way.

Blériot53 Posted at 12-27 06:25

MY 25 year old son lives in the house and I still mow the front lawn. He does the back. I guess it's something.

The further you go from the city the better they are about planning.

That does make sense.  Less densely populated areas with more land available for development.  However, with the urban sprawl is going it will eventually reach out and touch the suburbs.

Hopefully it takes very long.

Guess it will all depend on population growth in that area.  I've seen a few places where it happened in under a year.

That's fast. Where was that?

In the Doral and Hialeah area.

Nice captures!

Bursting at the seams and still growing.

It's amazing how some areas flourish whjile others wither away.

I think a lot of it revolves around quality of life.

For Sure it does.

Still, it is a bit strange how some towns start small, grow rather quickly and then just seem to die off.

Things like quality of life, jobs, culture and govt. greed change the living landscape. NYC is getting ridiculous. It's become a sanctuary city, all of our aid is going to people whoare here illegally, crime rates are rising and the city is falling apart. The good people in the area are leaving in droves but they are being replaced for people looking for free opportunity. I don't see the end result as good, but we will see.
