Interesting proposal from the Michigan Municipal League


The proposal, from the Michigan Municipal League, is reminiscent of the catalog homes that were built across metro Detroit and elsewhere a century ago. Called pattern-book homes, the latest iteration includes blueprints for duplexes, triplexes and quads that would create smaller, lower-cost housing units in neighborhoods, while still keeping the look of single-family homes.In announcing the plans, Michigan Municipal League's Melissa Milton-Pung, the group's program manager, said there is a gap in housing options that the pattern-book developments could help fill.
"Let's revive this tradition," she said. "They will slide right in."
