No offense and officially it is Chicago above. But OMG such a exception on a remotest edge of the city that is really looking for some scapegoat to infer it is anything but a annomally.
Just go one block or so away and you get back to the typical Chicago finished street ect....
What is unusual about your first street-view here? I did the 360 view and why is it odd for a new development on a edge of a major city? Chicago has much of the city as bungalow-type homes and this new one has them too???
The Milwaukee one is very much more like a farther outward suburban looking development. Still even mighty Urban NYC has these anomalies of many blocks of single homes in Boroughs of NYC you expect the most urban housing one can find an 5+ stories high. Every city has exceptions. Still if a city as Chicago has such a substantial STANDARD street-grid that has finished streets with curbing and officially... 90% of the city has alleyways behind every street.. You know YOU ARE PICKING the EXTREMES with such examples.
I did enjoy seeing them though as I thought a trailer/court type modular home thingy was illegal in the top post within Chicago you showed us as I believed a Container-home neighborhood would be?? You did prove though one exist ..... I would not have believed it otherwise being I lived in the city for a few years and never saw such a thing as a trailer court .... LOL
Wow, I'm loving those Chicago ones. Very cute, quaint, and still tightly packed together to give a nice urban dense feel with green space in the middle.
The Milwaukee ones though.. yikes. I didn't realize Milwaukee city borders literal farmland at the north. Who knew.

I think in every city you will find some exception if you search enough and probably on the edge of the city that got incorporated.

Isn’t that the point of the thread? Other people posted areas that were literally one street long as well.
Even if these are very small areas, I still think they are interesting.

Yes, definitely what this thread is about and I noted in my post last sentence how interesting it was to see. Just where some cities differ is the scope of completely different parts of their city in housing styles or street-grid to no grid that some cities have.
So guess I will play.... by far we think of Philly as our row-home Capital of the US and typically much of Philadelphia is.
Still even I knew there is a pretty large segment of the city that is pretty suburban with even parts in forested settings etc.
Here is far northern tier Philadelphia and some very unique stone homes on a hill....
double duplex homes are not uncommon in Philadelphia. Still these kinds probably are. Very alike,
though the whole area. Whole neighborhood has these very alike homes also on hills and curving streets,
Swivel around and go the other direction on Fuller and see the houses from the turn of the (20th) century that were spared the wrecking ball.
