This sounds like a good solution to me for the hordes of workers I have known who have set their families up in communities like Livermore or Gilroy, and commute TWO HOURS EACH WAY to the valley. These commuters often end up crashing on friend's sofas during the work week, and return home on weekends. Really, this low-impact housing solution solves so many problems (traffic, pollution, displacement, sleepy commuters crashing their cars, lost productivity). It's shame it's not being done right (unlock-to-exit makes my teeth grind).
