You could easily give each person 150 ft² (15 m²) of their own private space, pretty much anywhere.
You'd just need to bend the building/zoning code, or expropriate some land, or demolish some sacrosanct parking spaces.
If a suite with one kitchen and one bathroom and 3 people's private space takes up 750 ft², and you fit 12 suites per floor with 5 floors, you have 180 people on a building footprint of about 10750 ft² (1075 m²). If the lot is 3 times the area of building's footprint, it is about 0.8 acres (0.325 ha), and you are able to fit 800 of these in a square mile, for a population density of about 144,000 people per square mile. Put a couple roads and parks in-between, and it's still over 120k per square mile. This is not a crazy density, it doesn't deprive anyone of fresh air or sunlight or green space or privacy or accessibility, yet it could fit the populations of the largest cities on earth within a radius of 8 miles.
And you could do this with 19th-century technology too! Keeping people in dark and cramped quarters has always been a choice.
I was curious about rent in San Diego while vacationing there recently and I ended up finding something sorta similar to what you're describing. 98 sqft, furnished with shared bathrooms and showers, no mention of a kitchen. At 650 a month it was the most affordable thing I found.
This is a modern German prison cell.
