Policies to legalize the homes our cities need most—low-rise apartments and other modest, attached homes like duplexes, fourplexes, and low-rise apartments—can meet opposition in part because people aren’t sure what they might look like.
Showing photos of these “missing middle” homes helps normalize gentle density and illustrate how a diversity of home types fits into our communities. But writing about affordability solutions over the years, we know photos of multi-family homes aren’t always easy to find.

Take a spin! We invite our colleagues and policy partners—as well as activists and journalists—to post, publish, share, tweet, and otherwise employ these images however they like.Â
We hope you’ll also contribute your own photos. Snap some pictures of your favorite homes and send them our way. Use #MissingMiddle and #SightlineHousing to share on social media.
Here are our tips for photos that put missing middle homes in their best light:
