If that is so, what is the point of all that unusable wasted space around thise buildings, other than law requiring it for some randomreasons?

Without that, those buildings could either have high quality outside space that could be used for gardening or a terrace or the area could be reduced.

They squeeze the most "houses" in the lot as they can.
