Selected and representative examples were analyzed in terms of their characteristics of urban composition. The article describes the consecutive stages of development of the Szczecin agglomeration from the end of the 19th century to the present day in the context of changes in the shapes of multifamily residential architecture, emerging in suburban areas. For the purposes of the paper, typology of solutions was introduced based on the size and type of composition. Difficulties of creating new residential architecture in the areas of former villages, adaptations and extensions of former complexes of land estates and industrial complexes were discussed. The impact of the forms of investment processes on the shape of spatial solutions is also discussed, as well as the prospects for further development.}, doi = {10.4467/25438700SM.19.011.10799}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/srodowisko-mieszkaniowe/article/suburban-housing-multifamily-residential-architecture-as-an-element-of-urbanization-in-peripheral-areas-of-the-szczecin-agglomeration-in-the-late-20th-and-early-21st-century} }
