Hello from our little single stair flat in Ueno

6 units. 1 per floor, a small stair and tiny elevator - and a small pub on the ground level

Fine grained small frontage urbanism. No min frontage req, no parking min, single stair.

Oh, while you're in Tokyo you should check out shimokitazawa. A few years ago they buried the Odakyu Odawara Line and built Shimokita Senrogai on top - a nice linear park and really interesting set of buildings.

Very limited space used for parking

Full use of the space under the train deck

20km/h local streets blend ped / bike / car. Lots of seniors on bikes cruising by.
