High Density Residential District

Zone description

The district is designed as a high-density multiple-dwellings district to be used primarily in areas adjacent to the Central business district, the New Center Area, the Cultural Center, the waterfront, certain large city parks, and other areas which have a high concentration of persons and land values. This district will permit a range of living accommodations, from the low-density dwelling up to very high-density dwellings, including institutions and residentially related uses, and will permit certain specified service and convenience-type commercial uses of a character unlikely to develop excessive traffic but which will serve the residents of the immediate area. Single-family detached and two-family dwellings will not be permitted in this district by-right but may be allowed as Conditional Uses.
