All of the above, as well as duplex housing (2 houses 1 roof).  The
closer you get to the center of the city the higher the apartment
buildings, but most of the houses are row.  You can check it out with
Google Earth.  Look at Almere, which is just to the east of Amsterdam.

AFAIK, yes.  I wasn't here when it happened.  I do know that it
resembles in many ways Reston, VA, which is a planned community of
Robert E. Simon, thus RESton.

Reston was designed as a place where one could live, shop and work
without having to leave the community.  Each subdivision has it's own
shopping center, and office buildings are scattered throughout.  There
are also bicycle/walking paths connecting the areas together, as well
wide roadways.  It's changed some since it was started, because of urban
sprawl.  Reston is 18 or so miles south-west of Washington DC.
