Shame that this site didn't go for missing middle type density.

I agree! An apartment or even rental would be a great fit!

Would it be too much to ask for front facades that have articulation, detail, good proportions, alignments, or any positive aesthetic qualities at all?

It's hard to cheer for these plex developments when they look like this. The plans are wildly inefficient because of all the stairs, which is not the architects' fault. But the front elevations are aggressively bad. People need to try a bit harder.
