When having a look around the Silver Coast, but also in many other locations in Portugal, I find large amounts of "developments" with empty plots of land that already have roads, utility connections and side walks, but nobody ever built on there. I am not only talking about places like Bom Successo or Royal Obidos near Obidos, but also many smaller "developments". Does anybody know why this happened? It seems like a huge waste of resources to do all these preparations and then let is deteriorate.
