    Why am I worried that some asshole developer is going to buy that little triangle of land out from under him, kick him off, and then just leave it unused for years. Maybe that sort of thing doesn’t happen in the UK, but it sure AF would happen in the states.

      From the article

      “The land was granted to him by an arts charity called Antepavilion”

      He owns the land. Doesn’t stop the government from doing an eminent domain claim I guess but if they do he’s going to get more than it’s worth
