    There are those five-over-one constructions, which sort of fits, but they’re cheap as hell. The construction isn’t going to last.

      Yeah, but I’m still glad to see those over the sprawling parking lot retail district approach we’ve been using everywhere for decades in the US. Maybe we’ll do a better job on the revision when the ones you described start to fail lol, one can dream!

        I think inspectors in NJ already started cracking down on those constructions after a nasty fire. Those things are all stick construction for speed and cheapness. Minimum concrete.
