I grew up in a city of mostly rowhomes and I love them. Plan on buying one one day.
You still get walk-ability, sense of community and good population density (not as good as a high-rise but still good), but also more privacy, and the space is more conducive to raising a family than an apartment. Also they’re cute as fuck and people can paint them different colors and have cool little gardens on their porches and stuff.
Ok, then redesign. This isn’t an issue with rowhouses. This is an image with a walk-up entrance. Maybe design some with ramps. Boom. Done.
You would prefer condos everywhere? Or larger lots and detached homes? Those are the alternatives.
I wrote a bit to that, but if you give examples of specific row houses you ought to expect call outs if they are excluding a large part of the population. Really not getting why your vibe is as it is right now.
