Seattle's building a lot of midrise residential buildings in the inner city. It's a great town for it because it's a small area sandwiched between two bodies of water. Such a concentration makes it feel very urban. Lots of cities are building these types of buildings, but they're very spread out so they don't have the same feel.
This a very good point, concentration and connectivity are key

Anbody that has been to DC know's that dense housing and urbanity is not going to be a problem. DC is out of space so they are building up as much as congress allows. The long term goal is to pass 800,000 without any buildings over 14 stories. Downtown will be almost the whole city.

DC could easily hit 800,000 while still having lots of SFH's and rowhomes, I am pretty sure.
^ well of course, it was a fair amount above 800,000 people back in the 1950's. A lot of this has to do with housing sizes now compared to then.
