I'd commit crimes if I had to live in that place. I'm with Will Collier...No.

Why would ANYONE voluntarily live in something the size of a palatial.... hamster cage. My 1 car garage is bigger than that.

I'm seeing these stories all the time the last few years. NOT A GOOD SIGN...
I suspect that the illuminati are just preparing us for the day when we all live in beat up old shipping containers...

certainly not a new idea. boarding houses rented by the room were some of the first multi-housing units in the development of US cities (and probably elsewhere). these micro units are fine for the typical college grad or couple who like close quarters. they are not fine for most people, but they're designed for a market. housing developers understand the market (sometimes to our regret).
there is also a rather welcome (and HUGE) trend of older people moving into the city core, rather than making the mistake of moving to the 'burbs where services are fewer and far between.more than any other demographic, some of these places, albeit larger than the one featured, are very attractive to older folks.
