Layers and grades of settlement, Charlotte, NC


At the lower half of this development, the natural gentle slope of the land is being graded and restructured into flat layers simpler to build upon, rather than just conforming the houses to the curve. In Iowa, where the fractal watercourse nature of the land means nearly everything is sloped, the style is instead to have houses with a different number of stories in back and front.
