There is zero neighbourhood aesthetic when you've got smaller bungelows built in the 1930s with a huge yard next to some giant double garage new build right on the road with zero yard. If you chuck some apartment building on the street - its not going to throw anything off.

I can understand that sentiment. I just look at an area like mine, where the homes are from the 1970's and I can't say that I'd be too excited about upzoning there.
