Multi-story apartment building with breezeway

摘要

A three story apartment building with a number of breezeways on the first floor allowing access through the building to the other side will be designed so as to not have breezeways on the second and third story. The second and third floors of the apartment building will be comprised of two-story apartments so that no exits will be required on the third floor as required by the building code for separate third floor apartments. Preferably, each of the entrances to a first floor unit will be within the breezeways. In addition, no breezeway will need to be incorporated on the second floor since none is required on the third level. This allows for recovery of additional floor space on the second floor in the area over the breezeway of the first floor and recovery of all the former breezeway space on the third floor.
