Shooting Wide

I recently moved in with my brother - due to my sister (previous roommate) getting married, and of course, cheaper rent. While living with my sister we lived down town so moving into a newly developing part of town has been a bit of a transition for me. 
Every day as I drive home or look out of my window I am able to see the various different stages that the economy is in. 

The first photo is of a home that was bought and to my knowledge, never really lived in. It sits daily with a for sale sign, just waiting to be bought.


The second photo captures the vacant, for-sale house along with the construction of a new house with an empty lot that is for sale in the back of the frame.


The third photo captures three houses that are lived in daily, as well as the corner (the fresh grass) of a newly constructed, un-sold home. In the distance of this photo you can also see more homes being built as well as an LDS church to accommodate the culture of this area. 


This last photo shows the different stages of progress in the building of a house. In the foreground we see the pile of dirt that sits where eventually a home will be built. To the right, back of the dirt pile we see a framed building, with an almost completed house to its side.


It is interesting to see so many different stages in a mere two blocks. It fascinates me to watch these houses be built, but what is most intriguing to me is watching what happens to them once the construction is completed.
