Urban Infill & How To Drive Infill Development in Your City
Urban infill (also called infill development or infill densification) is the process of developing underutilized or vacant lots of land inside urban areas to densify and maximize land usage.
Exactly what urban infill looks like can vary from project to project. Examples of small-scale projects include the construction of row homes, low-rise multifamily developments, duplex, triplex, or four-plex buildings between low-density residential zones. Larger-scale projects might look like multi-story dwellings or mixed-use spaces that span an entire block.

Urban infill development creates opportunities to live in multi-family homes, condos, or duplex units, instead of the previously prevalent single-family houses.
