In Subdistrict C, as shown on Map 1 (Special Inwood District – Subdistricts and Subareas) in the Appendix to this Chapter, and
in Subdistrict F, the underlying height and setback provisions shall be modified for #zoning lots# that share a #side lot line# with
an adjacent #zoning lot# that is #developed# with a #building# constructed prior to December 15, 1961 that contain
#residences# with #legally required windows# facing and located within 15 feet of the shared #side lot line#.

The #street wall# location provisions of paragraph (a)(1) of Section 35-631 shall apply except that where an adjoining #zoning
lot# contains #residences# with #legally required windows# facing and within 15 feet of a shared #side lot line#, the #street wall#
of a #building# need not extend along the entire #street# frontage of such a #zoning lot# if an open area is provided above the
level of the first #story# or a height of 15 feet, whichever is lower, along the entire shared #side lot line#. Where such an open
area is provided, the #street# frontage of such open area may be excluded for the purpose of applying the #street wall# location
provisions of paragraph (a)(2) of Section 35-631.

In addition, where an open area with a depth of at least 15 feet, as measured perpendicular from the shared #side lot line#, and is
provided in the form of a recess, #court# or other open area is provided along shared #side lot line#, and such open area is
provided adjacent to all portions of a #building# on an adjoining #zoning lot# that contain #legally required windows# facing
and located within 15 feet of the shared #side lot line#, the applicable maximum #building# height set forth in Section 35-63,
inclusive, may be increased by 10 feet; and the maximum number of #stories#, if applicable, may be increased by one.

#Zoning lots# may apply the regulations of this Section along multiple #side lot lines# where applicable, but in no case shall the
permitted #building# height be increased by more than one #story# or 10 feet, whichever is lower.
