In a market where you have five parcels of viable land next to your site, it can be a problem having no opposition.

It was the most awful construction project I've ever been involved with. It wasn't a swamp, but the land was wet. It had a huge amount of trees and grass. For years the vegetation had fallen into the water and rotted, forming a tremendous amount of organic matter.

That's not as expensive as buying land outright.
