>After the Court's decision, the city allowed a private developer to proceed with its plans; however, the developer was unable to obtain financing and abandoned the project, and the contested land remained an undeveloped empty lot in 2019.

Wait, so did the original owner get back their property then?

No. Even if they had gotten their property back, the houses had been razed. (At least one house was moved.) As of 2018, it's simply a vacant parcel of land.
