Get educated on Agenda 21. It is easier to mange how you vote and how you organize when everyone is pushed into small, compact areas. Save the environment? Nah, this is about keeping you where you can be watched and controlled.

#2 First thing that came to mind was A21 also.

In socialist Europe, this is common. Many a dwelling unit enable the occupant access to the kitchen, bathroom and bedroom without taking more than two steps from the center(slightly exaggerated).

....but, but where would I store my lawnmower?

# 4, that´s not the kind of grass these people are thinking of.

I guess those of us who play the piano just have to give that stuff up for the Good of the Collective.

While they are cute ... they do, sadly, remind me of sharecropper cabins - and will look that way in a few years.

Not even a blade of grass to enjoy. Wake up America this is your future if you don´t cast these idiots aside.

Looks like a coffin with appliances.

...future home of the grateful proletariat...riding public transit, paying 75 percent in taxes, thinking they´re saving the planet, and always voting Dem whilst the politcal elites live like royalty. Wake up, people.

not too long ago you had one of these behind your F250 and spent the summer visiting yellowstone.....

The irony hear is that DC used to have lots of these "alley dwellings," as they were called back in the first half of the 20th century when poor blacks lived in them with no running water or electricity.

It was those conditions that led liberal reformers like Eleanor Roosevelt to promote "urban renewal" and "slum clearance."

The left did that in the 50s and 60s, replaced the slums with public housing high rises that became notorious in their own turn.

To fully appreciate how stupid this latest lefty trend is, you have to click through to the original Washington Post story, where you will find this:

“A midget could catch the devil in one of them teeny, tiny little houses. I just don’t understand the point,” says James Harris, 70, who worked for 40 years in the maintenance department for the Smithsonian Institution and, with his wife, Patricia Harris, 65, a longtime D.C. school administrator, saved to pay off the spacious rowhouse they bought 38 years ago.

“It’s our little piece of Washington,” Patricia Harris says.

Her family is descended from freed slaves; they moved here from the South with a dream to own land and a house big enough to raise children and entertain guests. “These tiny houses feels like we are going backwards,” she says.

" They think you’re stupid, America. And look how stunningly you just proved them right. "

60,630,038 of us are not stupid.
OTOH-65,170,881 voted for Obama.

Have you noticed how much the "new normal" looks like science fiction films with an Oppressive, overbearing, corrupt, evil government?

These boxes are luxurious compared to the new public housing being constructed in NY & LA. The new tiny apts are meant for middle income singles & couples, 200-300 sf each... and will be ready for occupancy next year.

The hopes are suburbanites will be forced into these micro apts due to massive tax hikes & refusal to maintain roads / infrastructure in the burbs.
