A curated urban dataset documenting apartment and mixed-use buildings across six Taichung districts.

Why it surfaced

17twhouse treats buildings as pieces of city life rather than property listings, recording addresses, shared facilities, nearby parks, schools, markets, and transit links. Its first release covers 12 buildings with 24 public-source links, and marks details as pending when they cannot yet be verified.
