Infill development in California leads a nationwide trend, although infill has a unique form in Southern California.
Infill development "could dramatically transform the landscape in the decades to come, experts say, renewing older communities and further crowding Southern California's dense population.
...The revival is part of a trend that is breathing new life into urban communities nationwide, such as in former steel mill neighborhoods in Pittsburgh, Baltimore's waterfront and old industrial areas around the Chicago Loop.
But what sets Southern California apart is that many infill projects are going up on vacant or underbuilt property left behind during a half-century of explosive growth by developers accustomed to having plentiful land on the horizon."
