State ex rel. Stoyanoff v. Berkeley

Rebecca Bratspies

Are you confident that you know a "grotesque monstrosity" when you see one?  Might reasonable people differ?  Might reasonable architects?  

Notice how nuisance language is deployed here.  How does this case build on Euclid? Think back to this case when you read Lucas and consider whether/how the impositions on the property owner differ.
