What is an Infill project?

An Infill project refers specifically to the creation of new housing within established neighborhoods. This involves utilizing vacant or underdeveloped parcels of land that are surrounded by existing development. The purpose of infill development is to increase housing density, make use of existing infrastructure, and revitalize neighborhoods without expanding the urban boundary. Infill projects can help promote sustainability by reducing urban sprawl and minimizing the need for new roads and services in undeveloped areas.

The other options do not accurately describe infill projects. Urban edge development involves expanding into areas on the outskirts of urban settings, landscaping initiatives pertain to beautification and maintenance of public or private spaces, and converting commercial buildings into residential units focuses on repurposing existing structures rather than developing new housing in established areas.
