      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 …

      compare: "townhouse"-style apartment complex in Framingham MA (every unit shares at least a wall with at least one other unit) vs. residential neighborhood in Ota Ward, Tokyo (mostly detached houses with some "townhouse" and other apartments scattered throughout)pic.twitter.com/6X46TJPIQ8

      Is having a "yard" really worth it when it's neither under your custody nor exclusive for your use? If you can't mow or garden, and can't decide who hangs out there or not--wouldn't it be better just to skip having a yard at that point, and go for something like Ota Ward instead?

      Basically, I can understand why people would rather live in a typical US suburb than in the pictured neighborhood--but I have trouble imagining anyone would rather live in typical US "dense development" than in the pictured neighborhoodpic.twitter.com/GR6vThUNND

      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

          And I like my view to include lots of cool tall buildings.
