The $0 and $5K interior lots on the other hand, you can just take your pick. But, unfortunately the beautiful house you want to build on the view lot, doesn't fit on the $5K lot. So there is that.
Interesting that there is a lottery drawing for the new lots. Maybe it makes sense to buy a home with the view you like in a pre-owned home. It could save some money.
