How much land has been freed up for us to build outwards rather than upwards?
Building forms in between the two extremes is our biggest issue. Both in builder/buyer preferences as well as the constraints from zoning and building codes.
There are so many examples around the world of denser low to mid-rise that can work provided the rest of the development can be done right to not be a sea of asphalt and concrete for cars without walkability.
