You see this a lot in Asian countries, a little tin shack next to a monstrosity. The town planning rules aren't like they are here and the owners aren't forced to sell if they don't want to so they will design a skyscraper around their little house. s
Dallas is much the same- out in the burbs you can see a 10 story office building next to junkyard or housing lots.
