Townhouse boom seen as housing demand shifts
Census Bureau head George Hay Brown predicts rising popularity of townhouses and cluster housing in the 1970s and 1980s due to urban land scarcity. Builders expect townhouse production to more than double this year, with townhouses forming about 22 percent of total housing as costs push buyers away from detached homes. In Scottsdale, Hallcraft, Patio Home and Casita concepts account for existing and under construction units as of Dec 1970.
