Population and Housing

[danbrotherston]

Can anybody suggest some buildings in Kitchener, Waterloo, or Cambridge that are good of examples of higher-density housing being built in existing single-family dwelling neighbourhoods that fit in and complement the style of houses around them?

Here's one I happened upon:

I'm not saying I like the building, (too much parking for one), but on the site of a single house, having a 3? unit building is a big improvement. And I question anyone to object to living next to that. It's basically the same as a house.

Here's an example on Walter:

There are a handful of these types of buildings around, but we need to be building a thousand of them per year at least.  And frankly, I'm not sure what zoning allows this, but I'm betting you won't find a single one of these in 60's era neighbourhoods and newer.
