Eminent Domain started when a huge need of land was needed for the public use.
"The city used eminent domain to take over my grandfather's farm and use it as a watershed area.""The state acquired the property for the freeway under the principle of eminent domain."* Eminent Domain is the power of the State to take over private property for a public use with payment of compensation to owner. The Supreme Court held in Kelo vs. City of New London that re-developing an area with a shopping mall could be considered a "public use." Eminent Domain is very broadly intrepreted in favor of the State.
Eminent domain, commonly also referred to as condemnation, is the power of a government entity to claim land which is needed for a public purpose, but only after following due process and equitably compensating the owner for the value of the taking.
