There is another new one going up not too far from me - $800,000 houses and they are trying to have the common area include a sidewalk so the kids can safely walk to school - reading the village board meeting reports in the newspaper I am surprised by how much work it's taking to clear the rights-of-way and arrange for a sidewalk and curb cuts to be installed.
