, really, to some extent, are a quirk of the code because they flow from the corner lot location and the need to modify the rear yard, so just as a two other examples, the common open space that we have, if it were located in a code compliant rear yard, we would not need a variance for common open space, but because its in a modified rear yard that responds to the corner location, different standards apply and it requires a variance.

[laughter] the short answer is that a non nested onebedroom apartment needs roughly about 23 to 24 feet of frontage to the street in order to get a bedroom that has a window on the front.

If i might, one last thing....

Minimum 50 openable of area. You could literally do the top half openable, or you can take a portion of the wall and make that openable. That is what we do. We take a portion of the wall, we slide the door past and now it is wide open, but then you have to take the ventilation requirements for the nested bedroom, which is a 4 of the floor area, and the light and air requirement which is eight of the floor area, and add that to the same four and eight for the in between room, and that tells you t...
