Last week we had Ossington's vertical duplexes.
This week we have Lawrence Park in a fright over what they are called "rowplexes"
Residents and councillor concerned about 22 townhomes proposed on Lawrence

Councilor Robinson is quick yet again to defend NIMBYs:
I'm really starting to turn against Robinson in this new council term.
The irony is many of those houses fronting Lawrence near Yonge have been converted to rental apartments because homeowners don't want to live so close to such a busy street. A properly designed row of townhouses, with parking access from the back (e.g. not directly off Lawrence) and sound-proofed windows at the front, makes a lot of sense. The only thing that makes more sense in that location would be a mid-rise apartment building.
