In urban areas, it is common to have mixed-use buildings as well, with
retail or services on the ground floor and residential units on upper floors.

No.
Landuse - a facility (what it gets used for)
The governmental authority here says an area is for residential use ..
They do that before there are any houses thus it is not just the area
under a building.
building - a physical item (what is there on the ground)
A building that is used for residences has a particular set of features
that distinguish it for other building types e.g. a mall.
--------------------------
I use my garden! I go out there and read, email .. even do OSM ... in
the garden.
The street in front of my home gets used by the kids to play soccer,
tennis ...
The land use is 'residential' .. even in the garden. And the neighbours
swimming pool.
The house is also residential.
I and my neighbours reside here - we use all of it.
