Good day, I am working on a building project and wanted to find out how many 1-bedroom units can be built on land approximately 1 .58 square meters big. This includes parking and enough space to avoid clutter. The building can also be 2 stories high. Also, roughly how much would the entire project cost? The numbers do not have to be perfect; I just need information before hiring another dodgy architect. Thanks and regards, Glaser.
