All fair comments, but the point stands that we *should* be looking at medium density housing near transport hubs rather than 1-2 bedroom flats and 5 bedroom 'executive' homes, and we obviously *did* have means to do this judging by the 1930s mansion blocks across London #MissingMiddle

I think that’s the same everywhere - European towns and cities are often a bit more compact because many people live in a family-sized flat in a 4-5 story block, sometimes in the city centre.
But these aren’t what the UK builds #MissingMiddle #SuburbanSprawl

Architecture is certainly work for the patient…but here part of our 1996 design for an ensemble of 18 houses (& a service station!) finally on site.
Pair of courtyard houses, open to sun. Compact & amenable, playful scale,
#missingmiddle
1998 approval had ‘commencement’ as 4 houses built

Oak Forest City Council just voted 3-1 to create an ADU pilot program. We're optimistic this will turn into another big win for the @strongtowns.org movement! This is a great first step, but we need to prove viability for this to become housing policy. #missingmiddle #adu #housing #strongtowns

If I had been answering Vihstadt's question, I'd say fmr Arlington CB chair Katie Cristol, whose knowledge on almost every issue and courage to stand strong for #MissingMiddle was very admirable.

If the issue is land availability, where’s the plan for medium density housing though? There was pre-election talk of encouraging social housing to be built as eg. mansion blocks #MissingMiddle

22) @walterolson.bsky.social continues using our excellent community as an example w/ 2023 electing a pro-development candidate @maureencoffeyva.bsky.social and a #MissingMiddle skeptic @susanforarlington.bsky.social. I should note the full-on NIMBY didn't make it, despite being #2 in the 1st round.

💥 The $1.5B question: Can Canada really cut development charges in half?
@MissingMiddle just dropped a sharp take on the 7 challenges the feds must solve.
