(CNN) U2's guitarist The Edge will have to continue to wait to build his dream compound.

The artist, whose real name is David Evans, has been attempting to build a series of five mansions along the Malibu coastline over the past 14 years and this week the California Supreme Court denied his most recent petition.

The series of eco-friendly homes were to be called "Leaves in the Wind" and cost more than $100 million to build.

"I'm very happy that the Supreme Court decided not to review the case because it brings a definitive end to this terrible project which would have caused devastating damage," Dean Wallraff, a lawyer for the pro-environment Sierra Club said in an interview
