  • Alterlaa is a public housing complex in Austria with a shape that allows for several floors to grow plants on their balconies.

    This still falls short of a backyard you’d get with many rowhomes, though. But Alterlaa follows the towers-in-the-park philosophy of urban planning so there’s plenty of outdoor space for families. In a traditional, pre-industrial-style city you’d just have more parks and car-free streets with lots of vegetation. For dense and modern cities, Singapore is working on blending modern urbanism with nature.
