I love rowhomes. Every neighborhood with rowhomes feels like a real place where real people live. It’s the right trade off between density and livability, especially for families with kids. Commodified housing is still the main problem, but in terms of urban design, it doesn’t get much better.
Rent is 99k a month and your first born. Also planting in the garden is a lease violation
Kinda surprised by the number of people in here who seem to be objecting to this on the grounds of like, some minor inconvenience they might have which realistically is going to apply to pretty much anything that’s not like a detached single family home. Like what do you want? Suburbia but make it communist and good somehow?
Row home appreciation picture:
Montréal has a fair amount of these and they’re pretty cool. Also variations of this ofc, like sometimes it’s not fully connected, but in groupings of four units with little passageways between the buildings, or they might have little yards or be 3 units tall, really depends on the area.
I keep my bike by the front door. Where do you keep yours?
As for strollers, consider it anti-krotchgoblin-aktion
So you carry that bike up 1.8m each time you get home? This doesn’t seem to be barrier free to me. Same with strollers, trolley’s of old people and wheelchairs.
Love me some good row houses
strong agree. honestly alot of the lefty urbanite types here don’t realize you can make very pleasant areas with multi-family units and attached single family units that provide walkable ammenities and don’t have to force people to live in 600 sq ft.
Or that you’re allowed to put embellishments on buildings and not everything has to be brutalism or corporate-bauhaus
