I really like these smaller multiplex units going up in Toronto. They're like the unsung heroes of the urban fabric.
Every since they approved the blanket zoning increase in Calgary, we've had a lot of smaller infills (4-16 unit builds) going up, but they aren't nearly as stylish as the ones in Toronto.

I noticed the same in Calgary - but I think that must also be a reflection of easier zoning rules. I.e. developers can develop standardized 4-8-plexes because they know they'll be approved. Whereas Toronto needs to make each one much more customized

Definitely a big part of it I think. There are some nicer infills in pricier neighborhoods, but for the most part fairly generic. They offer good function, but the form is still a work in progress.
This is a common style of infill you'll see around Calgary. 6 units on a corner. Decent, but nothing to write home about.
Some offer a good density boost. End lots that were large like his one, is one house being replaces by 16 units.
3 houses replaced by 36 units.
Definitely a win in many ways, especially a good density boost, but they could use some lessons from Toronto on style and materials.
If anyone had time to kill and was curious of the infill market in Calgary this is the infill thread.
