LAST AMENDED
12/5/2024

The following regulations shall apply along all other #streets# in the Coney West Subdistrict, except within 70 feet of Riegelmann Boardwalk.

(a)    #Street wall# location

       The #street wall# location provisions of paragraph (b) Section 35-631 shall apply and extend up to base heights as defined in this Section. To allow portions of towers
       to rise without setback from grade, a portion of a #building# base below a tower may be set back 10 feet from the #street line#, provided the width of such setback
       area is not greater than 40 percent of the width of the #street wall# of the tower.

       The entire area of the #zoning lot# between the #street line# and all #street walls# of the #building# and their prolongations shall be planted at ground level, or in
       raised planting beds that are permanently affixed to the ground, except that such plantings shall not be required at the entrances to and exits from the #building#,
       within driveways accessing off-street parking spaces located within, to the side, or rear of such #building#, or between #commercial# #uses# and the #street line#. No
       #zoning lot# shall be altered in any way that will either create a new non-compliance or increase the degree of non-compliance with the provisions of this Section.

(b)    #Building# base

       The #street wall# of a #building# base, or portion thereof, located beyond 100 feet of Surf Avenue, shall rise without setback to a minimum height of 40 feet or the
       height of the #building#, whichever is less, and a maximum height of six #stories# or 65 feet, whichever is less. All portions of a #building or other structure# that
       exceed a height of 65 feet shall be set back from the #street wall# at least 10 feet. Such setback may be modified in accordance with the provisions of Section 23-433
       (Standard setback regulations).

(c)    Transition heights

       Beyond 100 feet of Surf Avenue, a #street wall# may rise to a maximum transition height of nine #stories# or 95 feet, whichever is less, provided that:

       (1)    above the maximum base height, #street walls# are set back a minimum distance of 10 feet from the #street line#, except that for #blocks# north of the Ocean
              Way #street line#, along a minimum of one #street line# bounding the #block# (except for Surf Avenue), at least 40 percent of the #aggregate width of street
              walls# shall remain open to the sky for a minimum depth of 100 feet from the #street line#;

       (2)    for #blocks# bounding the southern #street line# of Ocean Way, any portion of a #building or other structure# that exceeds a height of six #stories# or 65 feet,
              whichever is less, shall be located within 80 or 100 feet of a #street line#, as indicated on Map 6 in the Appendix to this Chapter;

       (3)    for portions of #buildings# higher than six #stories# or 65 feet that are within 100 feet of Riegelmann Boardwalk, each #story# within such portion shall
              provide a setback with a depth of at least 10 feet, measured from the south-facing wall of the #story# directly below.

      A #building or other structure# may exceed such transition heights only in accordance with the tower provisions of Section 131-434.
