same lot and typically in the same year were

omitted from this analysis.

LOCATION OF SINGLE-FAMILY HOME DEMOLITIONS - PRINCETON, NJ (2005-2016)*

This map shows the location of single-family

home demolitions in Princeton, NJ from 2005 through July 2016. The demolitions of single

family homes are concentrated in the central and eastern

parts of Princeton with a small cluster near

Greenway Meadows. On some streets, such as Random Road, Snowden Lane and Jefferson Road,

a string of adjacent houses have

been demolished.

This data was obtained from the Princeton

Building Department and geocoded by the project team to help

analyze spatial patterns and identify other trends. Multiple

demolitions permits issued for the same lot

and typically in the same year were omitted from

this analysis

3

This map shows the location and size of home addition permits issued

from 2005 – 2015. Overall, the spatial

patterns on this map resemble those on the

map of demolitions. Large additions are being

undertaken in the same general areas/zoning

districts as the demolitions.

This data was obtained from the Princeton

Building Department and geocoded

by the project team to help analyze spatial

patterns and identify other trends. Very small home additions (smaller

than 500 s.f.) such as bathroom renovations,

patio expansions etc. and additions with missing

information are omitted from this analysis.

LOCATION & SIZE OF HOME ADDITIONS - PRINCETON, NJ (2005-2015)

4

The majority of the single-family demolitions

are clustered in the former township’s R-4,

R-5 & R-6 zoning districts.Parcels in these zoningdistricts are, typically,

half-acre and smaller lots. There is also a

concentration in the Borough R-1, R-2 and R-4 district, which are also, typically, half-acre and

smaller parcels. There is a smaller cluster within the

former Township’s R-2 zoning district.

There are fewer demolitions taking place in other zoning districts.

A higher density of demolitions tends to occur in smaller lot

subdivisions that are in districts that are

established between 1930 and 1970 where

there is “latent capacity” in the zoning bulk

regulations.
