Brookside Homes Assn Establishes New Overlay District For The Neighborhood

Driving around Brookside, Waldo, and Prairie Village, every so often you will see a brand new home built on an empty lot where an old house once stood.

  7. We live in north Leawood, which is a hotbed of teardowns of little houses on big lots. We have a committee who has to approve the new plans. We call then "Ranch Nazi's". The only good thing is that when we are ready to sell, some idiot will pay lots of money to buy the lot.
