The lot

What is already here?

The lot holds a 1-story store building built in 1940, on a 9,080 sq ft lot.

  1. Floor 1Street levelStreet level. The lot is recorded as commercial and office, so this floor is where the commercial space is.
  • Street levelCommercial and office
  • Above the southern skylineFrom about floor 3 — the tallest thing within 60 m to the south is 7.2 m
Drawn from the outline and roof height the Department of City Planning publishes for this building: 3.5 m over 1 floor, as the city counts them. 1 run of floors has something on record. The city publishes a roof height and a storey count for the lot, and nothing at all about any individual floor. What stands to the south is measured from the city’s own footprints and roof heights; it is a statement about the skyline, not a calculation of sunlight.
