Answer 1

What is implied when the author states that Dale Eaton "didn't buy the lot for the usual reasons" is:

B. Most empty lots are not developed into organic gardens.

It is unusual that Eaton bought the lot to grow a garden since "most developers these days are interested in condos or apartment buildings." According to the text, Eaton just wanted a garden he didn't buy the lot in order to make a profit. He simply wanted to protect his neighborhood. On the other hand, his neighbors are happy about the garden since they can grow things that were too big to grow in their yards. Finally, his neighbors also help out in the garden.
