Paper Streets or Road Searches

[Will Costello]

Hello Everyone. A friend of mine was lucky enough to purchase a house next to a paper street which was never built. He was able to petition for ownership of the street as it was adjacent to his property, and now he has space to add to his property and increase the value. 

Is there a way to find locations in my city (or any city) where I might be able to keep and eye on homes with these nearby paper streets and potentially purchase and add to the property values? 

Thanks ahead of time.
