This is all the worst parts of every housing option combined into a single option.

I thought it was a funny image but the more I zoomed in, the more real it became and the sadder I got. If there were an abandoned parking garage in my city, that's what it would be.

I don't see a turf grass lawn, so it's got that going for it.

Excuse me, but the junk decks would be perfect for my copious amounts of junk that I wish to display publicly

At least units/condos have enough parking. Here they approve sky scrapers of 3 bedroom units with 2 car parks in tiny streets. Those then get rented to 3-5 people (after allowing for couples) and these tiny streets become smaller with overcrowded parking.

I only read about it last year, but it's been such an awe inspiring revelation. I still can't believe that something like that existed, but I kinda can imagine it, I have lived in a really dense city and then in part of the same city which is not as dense and the feeling is just confusing

Ready Player One, but the nice neighborhood.

[-] WhatsHerBucket@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

First thing that came to mind!

Even though I did not ask for it in the prompt, I kinda like the one random tree on top.

Gotta meet the city green ordinance.

My only real issue is the dilapidated state of many of the houses, if they were nice and unkept tiny homes it’d be cool.

I wouldn't say I love it, but it's certainly a better use of space than a typical garage

Looks like the 1967 Montreal Expo Habitat 67 apartments. From an engineering point it turns out that the more exterior walls you have the less efficient it becomes for your heating and cooling needs.

Critically important in Montreal where the temperature in the winter can get to -20C pretty regularly, and summers can often hit +35C.

You also expose more walls to wear and tear from the elements, and some of those surfaces (like the exposed bottom floor of an apartment 20m up in the air) will be hard to do maintenance on.

If only they could have predicted it somehow with some sort of specialized knowledge

On top of that, concrete is quite a poor insulator.

Don't give ideas to chaotic evil architects

Why would you let an AI cook this up if it is actually real?

[-] CuddlyCassowary@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Vaguely reminiscent of The Stacks in Ready Player One.
