P.E. right-of-way / Brookside

Thank you GW. I guess I need to run my posts past you first. Do you know, BTW, if there is some lingering legal reason for the old rights-of-way to be kept clear? I'm sure it's a pain for developers, but except for the example shown immediately below (west of Vista), they're at least somewhat open.

Vista crossing, south of Hawthorn then:

...and who owns that 6" gap between the low retaining walls (above)? One almost expects a tiny trolley to come clanking out between them.


P.S. Looking for an address out near Whittier, I found Shubin Lane, a skinny new disjointed street built on an old railway right-of-way. The pattern of yard-less houses repeats for block after block. Must drive the emergency services crazy trying to find a way in:
