Zoning approval affirms development under the RM-1 district, which permits multi-family household living. The lot measures 991 square feet, with 740 square feet allocated to building footprint and 250 square feet retained as rear yard open space (25 percent of lot area). The building will stand 35 feet tall, within the 38-foot maximum for RM-1 zoning.
Architectural drawings show a narrow, three-story rowhouse structure clad in brick at the ground floor and topped by modern vertical siding. The design incorporates full-height windows at the front façade, with a pilot house rising above the main roofline to provide access to the fiberglass roof deck. Interior plans show three residential units stacked vertically, each with open living areas, bedrooms, and bathrooms, with the third-floor unit enjoying direct access to the roof deck.
