Lubbock is truly a city that is expanding and growing rapidly. New residential construction is what we examined recently. We found a new housing development that featured large homes on enormous lots, and every lot had a huge RV shed/workshop. This was for people who like a lot of SPACE. The lots were big enough to fly the average RC electric parkflyer with no problems at all.
These photos were taken in a part of Lubbock that is experiencing the most rapid growth.
Fresh concrete!
And here we are, at the margins of a spanking new subdivision! The utilities are going in and land is being cleared. A few miles from here, houses are going up.
This sort of expansion will continue until the water is gone. And that will probably be sooner than anyone thinks. The developers don't care. They are out to make money and they won't be here anymore when the building boom collapses. They'll have made theirs and screw the rest of us. The faster the population grows, the sooner that day of reckoning comes, when the wells go dry. All this building is really bringing us closer to disaster.
