Located in a residential neighborhood
of single family homes in Chicago, on a lot of 125’
x 25’, this 2,800 sq. ft. townhouse is limited in width
by the narrow lot, and also the zoning code that limits the
height to 25’ to the bottom of the roof joists. These
restrictions
offered the opportunity to lower the entrance to four feet
below grade in order to maximize the height of this three-story
residence. The entrance is located in the center
of the plan in order to limit circulation to the area
of limited light and air within the body of the house. |
