Not the way we are accustomed to building detached houses in USA--but ditch the yards and reduce the building footprint (keeping overall costs lower & making such houses more accessible for low-income buyers) and it's another story https://twitter.com/ded_ruckus/status/1011301084348858368 …

I think I'd rather live in a dense us neighborhood than this one (prices aside of course) cause this looks extremely focused on residential. I've loved having all types of shops a block or two (or less!) away. And I miss rooftops with views.
-
lmao I guarantee you the above picture has a much greater variety of shops w/in a block or two (and doctor's clinics, and small religious buildings, and schools, etc)
-
As for rooftops with views: just get on the roof and you get a view!
-
I can't afford a building that's tall enough to have a view! That's why I need to split the land costs with a couple hundred neighbors.
-
the height a building needs to provide a view depends entirely on the surrounding buildings, so......
-
...provided you're not literally living in Manhattan, you should typically be able to get a view at 2~4 floors

I'm in the US and if not in a downtown, I'd rather live at a place like this
