I lived in a 3-meter wide downtown Toronto townhouse for years. I still miss it!
PS: just another reminder that housing speculation has driven the price of housing in #Toronto and #Vancouver to insane levels. #housingCrisis

Right down the street from where I used to live.Cabbagetown homes are narrow and tall. Most semi-detached in Cabbagetown would be ~4.6m wide.

@EricCarroll @deborahh Strangely I'm unable to read the article... Flipboard directs me to the blogto site, and that gives me an oddly-worded 404 page
But what I've read is that this phenomenon comes from an era when Toronto property taxes were based on a property's *width* (or maybe the whole frontage, but not the entire depth). So: tall, narrow houses!

@jsstaedtler @EricCarroll huh. It works for me again, now. Weird!

@jsstaedtler @EricCarroll my narrow townhouse was built in the 1980's. Its narrowness was more likely an energy-saving strategy, I'm sure the tax laws were different by then.
Oh, I miss that little townhouse! :-) -

Oh, I miss that little townhouse! :-)@deborahh Now I want to look into this phenomenon more, like what are the factors that promote the tall & narrow style today? I think there are even new builds that are 3-4 stories tall and are actually two stacked homes. My suspicion is that there are maximum height regulations, and builders want to maximize living units per area of land; though maybe there's a nostalgia factor at play as well

@oblomov @gattoparlante @leodurruti secondo me non fregano un cazzo a nessuno, in giro a Milano non ho visto sto gran numero di turisti in più rispetto al solito, tra l’altro pare che i biglietti costino cifre esorbitanti
