At reading the headline, I really thought “semi” was going to be an old Freightliner or something.
Never heard of a “semi” referring to a apartment.
Thanks for the edumacation.

I thought it might’ve meant half of a double wide.

I don't think that is a semi since it is attached on both sides. It looks more like a row house although with a store front maybe a commercial property with maybe an apartment above it. This is what a semi detached house looks like.

Brits use the housing term “semi-detached” to describe what we call a duplex. Perhaps the Canadians use the same term.
