That's a pretty old standard. Concrete condos are by and large using heat pumps now, with centralized cool and warm water feeds.
On a related note I rented a condo built in the late 90s that had hot water baseboards. I imagine that's pretty efficient using the centralized boiler.

It turns out natural gas indoors is not great for kids with developing lungs (and the rest of us) as there was some links to asthma and other breathing ailments. I love my NG stove but this is part of the reason.
Has a natural gas fireplace caused a condo fire in Metro Van recently? I can't think of any examples.
