[quote=Anonymous]"Many of the EU re-compaction and brownfield developments I am praising are going all-in on diverse housing types: social housing, multigenerational housing (for young and old, single and families), clusterwohnungen (“cluster apartments” with large communal units for six to 15 people), baugruppen (urban cohousing), elderly housing, housing for single parents, housing for couples, cooperatives, and rental syndicates (a la Mietshäuser Syndikat, a networked syndicate of affordable rental cooperatives), temporary worker housing, maisonettes (two-story apartments), and more."

I would love the hear specific locations from the PPs who support this (if you're local enough to actually know locations that could work). assuming that you could find the land- which is an enormous if-  do you really think that Americans would be eager to have temporary worker housing or giant group house apartments? Nothing about American culture makes me think that people would ever be open to either [/quote]
