The house is basically just a simple rectangle, but we're looking at it as a blank canvas.

I'm not sure the motel realities (shared walls, tiny bathroom, boring rectangle shape) could demand a high enough price per night. 

I looked at some of this type of housing in Hattisburg MS  a while back I thought this was a cool plan these were new.house was a basic rectangle.. came in the front door kitchen to the right galley style  then you had a great roomoff of the great room there were 4 doors 2 on each side leading straight into bedrooms that also had private baths and closets.. so each student had their own space.. central area for TV and social and one kitchen and table to eat on.Very basic design easy to build.. and these had scored concrete floors so little more to build but no replacing carpet when beer bongs spill over.. :)  no carpet at all in the house.Just have to put a few more toilets and showers in.. 

The rectangle of concrete blocks in the back yard should be removed if there's no reason for them, they're a tripping hazard too. 

It is a large tract that sits in a rectangle fashion on two major cross streets with a tear down house on the corner.

To be honest, with all the HST tax charged on construction and resale, it makes the proforma challenging.For a simple rectangle in plan, with a very simple interior layout (straight run stairs, stacked plumbing and services) but high quality windows and builder grade interior finishes) what range of construction costs in $/sf would I be looking atHow difficult is it to sever a lot in Toronto (we'd be looking at lots in the range of 30'-40' frontage)?

And go light grey for your supporting content.Switch out the smaller rectangle images ( in your topic areas) for clean - flat icons.

I like to think of it like squares and rectangles.

This is because they ship structurally sound rectangles that are then put together on site.  

Please take the following logic and adjust to the land and your market.Is land square, rectangle, or odd shaped.
