Black's Law Dictionary
A term of the civil law comprehending every sort of edifice or other structure which is newly commenced on a given estate or lot. Its importance lies chiefly in the fact that a remedy is given ("denunciation of new works") to an adjacent, proprietor whose property would be injured or subjected to a more onerous servitude if such a work were allowed to proceed to completion.
