The Former Carrolton Subdivision

Carrolton subdivision, in Bridgeton, MO used to be a nice little neighborhood. Then, in 1989, Lambert Airport decided they needed to expand, and started buying houses.

The last family moved out last year, and the subdivision is a collection of empty spaces, vacant houses, and charred remains.

The Post-Dispatch wrote an interesting article on Monday, and the blog, 56 Houses, has been documenting the saga. They are both interesting reads.
