At 19' wide it's a bit small even for a garden.
Mind you, in Tokyo it's not uncommon to see 4-6 storey buildings that are only 3-4m wide. I don't think those would be popular here, though. 19' of lot width means about 18' of interior width. Workable for small retail, but quite restrictive for the layout of the residential floors. You could make it work with just two units per floor (and a staircase in the middle, entered from the back of the building) but only one room would end up having a window in each unit.
