What houses were YOU looking at? When we we house shopping, there were plenty of Block/Stucco homes with tile floors, granite kitchens and baths...
I'll agree on the power lines (when we bought, Chitty Chatty and Bradford were where the new builds were and that area had a lot of power lines. But since then, there are plenty of villages without them. More to be built on the far side of the turnpike...
There is plenty of land set aside for shopping centers, along with privately owned land waiting to be developed.
They are currently building a shopping center adjacent to Middleton and will have another shopping area in Eastport...
The gas station in the Marsh Bend shopping center is awaiting permitting to open...
