- Note
- Architizer's `Multi-unit housing` and `Affordable housing` actually name the containing building, for which this axis has no term - they are in `seenAs` because that is where a crosswalk will land them today, not because they are correct. See the header's gap list.
Crosswalks
No external scheme has been searched for this term yet. That is the absence of a record rather than a result: where a scheme has been searched and found to carry nothing, the search, its date and its query are published here as evidence. See governance.
