[dewline]

While checking out spacing_ottawa's sister weblogs, I came across an entry of interest re: the "intensification" doctrine of urban redevelopment in older neighbourhoods: The Genius of Walk-Up Apartments. Written by Alex Bozikovic and Toronto-focused, I'm finding myself thinking that this does have applications across the country if not the planet.

Opinions?

Second paragraph goes into some detail, including mentions of exemplars of the type. I think I've seen the like - among other places around town - on Somerset between Kent and Lyon...?
