abandoned lot

Empty urban plot

An abandoned lot is a piece of land, usually in an urban area, that has been left vacant and neglected.

The property may hold remnants of demolished structures or simply be overgrown with weeds: Kids cut through the abandoned lot on their way to school.

Such lots often become dumping grounds or informal gathering places.
