Yes - of course, and here's an example:
As a child I remembered especially certain big private properties or residences (often belonging to very rich strangers) behind high walls, cutting or complicating the access to public spaces, for instance, which caused polemics by then.
Even today, our French neighbours are still dealing with this kind of problems around public access to lakes and natural recreation areas, and on our side (our people has been voting), on persisting disputes over "cold beds" (private second homes only occupied for a few weeks per year) in Valais and other touristic sites, which are mutilating natural landscapes, reducing agricultural spaces, deteriorating historical places and from which local communities cannnot benefit.
And the real estate bubble goes on in most European countries.
