At $500/sq.ft. + foundation + services, other than on site time savings I don't see the advantage for markets (cities) where labour is easily available.

The article talks about these as primarily laneway housing infill. If you're thinking of adding housing to your own yard, labour is only easily available if you don't value your own time. Adding a prebuilt unit like this one means you need to deal with foundations and site servicing, and that's about it. You don't have to become an amateur project manager and wrangle dozens of suppliers and trades.
Is $300 - $400 / sq ft the current going rate for new construction of residential projects (non-highrise)? My brother is looking at building a house relatively soon, and when discussing it, I was remembering numbers from about 4-5 years ago where I heard $260-$300 to construct a house (typical infill), depending on the level of finishes of course.But you can have a similar unit professionally designed and site built by a local builder for somewhere in the $300-$400 /sq ft range.

Is there enough space to put a stadium over the tracks between the EV and Vic Park? That's pretty much the best case scenario for a new stadium. On top of having the 4 Street SE Station basically inside the building.
