Is it just me or is the thumbnail from this post a perfect example of classwarfare in action?

Why do only the bigger houses get a lane of trees in front?

Looks like the smaller buildings are garages in an alley.

A lot of them are "laneway houses," a way to subsidize your own home by renting out your alleyway frontage to someone else.

TIL about alleyway frontage, now that i pay attention to it i have seen it plenty of times in media but so rarely in real life.

Those are some massive houses though.
