I agree with this. One of the big things that always kinda "hurt" me as far as modern planning is concerned is the mostly "death" of the business-home duplex. You own a building that is business downstairs, house upstairs. Look at a place like SF and you could have a single building with 30 businesses and 30 homes, and it would fit into a standard commercial slot. That makes for walkable cities, if nothing else, and a short commute to work.
- CryptoBanker 4y agoThat’s shocking to me as that seems to be almost a rule for many commercial properties in NYC outside of midtown and FIDI
- THENATHE 4y agoMost of my experience is with Daly City and it seems like that is absolutely NOT a thing there. I can also say that outside of older cities (IE, Phoenix AZ for an example) the duplex home-business is completely nonexistant
