That's a good point. What about making fewer parcels, but having the structures be bigger, so that the set back from the property lines is minimal, thus maintaining the inner city feel, but giving more prims per build? Combining the two parcels on the (right side of the picture) and splitting the middle parcel on the left . The rectangular shape would resemble a bavarian guesthouse, a bit? Could even be pre built, like the mews were done in AM.
then the rest of the plan could be kept as Sleazy lays out?
