Applicant completes purchase through the Build a Lot program within 60 days, or potentially forfeits their deposit
Properties may be offered at discounted pricing based on the type of project proposed. Housing, economic development, and community-serving uses may qualify for reduced land costs in exchange for delivering clear public benefits.
The program is designed to be transparent, predictable, and outcome-driven. Applicants know what is expected, how pricing works, and what they need to deliver—making it easier to move projects from concept to construction.

Build a Lot is designed to ensure that publicly controlled land is used intentionally and effectively. These values guide how properties are priced, how projects are evaluated, and how we support outcomes that benefit both the buyer and the broader community.
We engage residents as partners and leaders in shaping the future of their neighborhoods.
Our work prioritizes disinvested areas and aims to create inclusive, lasting opportunity for all.
We collaborate across sectors—public, private, nonprofit, and grassroots—to leverage resources and expertise.
We turn vision into reality by aligning planning, policy, and capital to deliver measurable results.
