As much as those are celebrated and attractable as those are, they do not help form a cohesive urban environment a city needs to be walkable, urban, and connected. Lafayette Park is its own little world.

Also beside LP, where does one find these contemporary rowhouses in the lower east side?

When and if any new housing construction happens in Detroit, it needs to happen carefully and intentionally in order to form an urban oasis. I think everything within Grand Blvd needs to follow this. Unfortunately, neighborhoods and low income/senior townhouse subdivisions have destroyed some parts of inner core.
