- I took the following photographs in November, 1994. They show the lots at issue in Lucas [505 U.S. _, 112 S. Ct. 2886 (1992)] and the immediate vicinity. The text is from my book, Regulatory Takings: Law, Economics, and Politics, which Harvard University Press will publish in July of 1995. The photos may be reproduced and circulated provided that they are attributed to me. The text is copyrighted by Harvard University Press, and permission from them should be obtained to reproduce it further.
