After 20 years of wear and tear the new "rowhouses" will be twisted and falling down from the warped green pine framing and will probably need a hazmat reno when you find out the cheap drywall they used is actually made of shredded Chinese newspapers held together with strychnine.
Nothing will ever have the same feel as hardwood timbers, masonry construction, and lath and plaster.
