Australia's first "townhouses" came into being precisely because they were adjacent to rail, tram and shopping centres, which was handy because they hadn't invented the car as yet  



History repeats.


BTW half the row of the above picture - in Buckingham St Surry Hills - are still standing, they are about 15 min walk from Redfern Station Sydney and no doubt a tram or omnibus would have gone past the end on Cleveland Street  
Also the "side row" you can just glimpse are still there in their entirety in Belvoir street. I wonder if the Ipswich ones will last as long
