M ULTI U NIT D ISTRICTS • The intent of the Residential districts is to promote and protect higher density residential neighborhoods within the character of the neighborhood context. • The building form standards, design standards, and uses work together to promote safe, active, pedestrian-scaled residential areas. Buildings orient to the street and access is from the alley. Lot coverage is typically high accommodating a consistent, shallow front yard. -Excerpts from the Denver Zoning Code 09.07.17 35
