§ 9-204. R-8 Rowhouse Residential District.

(a) Neighborhoods.

The R-8 Rowhouse Residential Zoning District is intended to accommodate and maintain the traditional form of urban rowhouse development typical of many of the City's inner neighborhoods, which contain continuous, block-long rowhouse development built to or only modestly set back from the street.

(b) Housing types.

Although rowhouse is the predominant housing type, this district also accommodates other residential types, of a similar density, including detached and semi-detached dwellings, and multi-family developments of a larger scale than found in more restrictive zoning districts.
