Houstonist Flickr Photo of the Day - abandoned house

abandoned house
by el_en_houston

An all too common sight as neighborhoods become gentrified. Gone are the days of one single family home sitting on a lot. Now, developers try to cram as money poorly built structures on a lot as greed overtakes them. Why sell one $650,000 home when you can sell six? The poor construction is what we are laughing at now as some of those new residences built 5-10 years ago are already showing horrible signs of aging and shoddy construction.
