Communal kitchen/popular restaurant and laundromat.
A huge amount of work is done inefficiently by "families" in their individual houseworks, usually as unpaid labour. A popular restaurant both makes food affordable for anyone, produces good employment and replaces the unpaid housework labour, and also produces a new third space for socialising. The same thing applies to the laundromat, to a lesser degree in labour but greater degree in water efficiency.
