Yes, in some respect there may be easier ways, but none of them assumes legal possession as clearly and quickly through the laws of "abandonment"; i.e., allowing for a taker to capture title to the soil regardless of the adverse claims by previous owner. Tally in the Kelo decision and other federal and state "taking" statutes and you have an almost impervious solution for the rebuilding of NO.
