If these units were created as part of a larger community structure, it might work out. I imagine a possible roof courtyard or park, a common foyer/atrium with couches and wifi, maybe a small gym room, and a cafe that opened to the street.

If these are targeting younger singles, you could make these units part of a greater whole. Like an old folks home for urban youngsters.

But I don't think these are being planned much beyond the individual unit.

So in other words, if they were dorm rooms.

But they're not. That's the whole point. If you wanted to live in a community downtown you'd get roommates, that's what people have done since the dawn of time.
