WIDE STREET

A WIDE STREET is any STREET 75 feet or more in width.

In C5-3, C6-4 or C6-6 Districts, when a FRONT LOT LINE of a ZONING LOT adjoins a portion of a STREET whose average width is 75 feet or more and whose minimum width is 65 feet, such portion of a STREET may be considered a WIDE STREET; or when a FRONT LOT LINE adjoins a portion of a STREET 70 feet or more in width, which is between two portions of a STREET 75 feet or more in width, and which portion is less than 700 feet in length, such portion may be considered a WIDE STREET, and in that case, for the purposes of the height and setback regulations and the measurement of any RESIDENTIAL PLAZA, URBAN PLAZA or ARCADE, the STREET LINE shall be considered to be a continuous line connecting the respective STREET LINES of the nearest portions of the STREET which are 75 feet or more in width.
