Using The Verandas District as the closest Downtown Code analogue to OT-R: one and two-story structures are typical, with a maximum height of 30 feet. Minimum first floor-to-floor height 12 feet (10 feet for House and Duplex/Triplex building types); minimum upper floor height 10 feet. Where a new building or upper-story addition sits adjacent to an existing one-unit detached residential building, citywide Downtown Code residential transition standards also apply: a minimum 35-foot transition area and a maximum 2-story height within that area, plus a required screening device 6 to 8 feet high (Downtown Code Ch. 4, Downtown Residential Protections).
Using Patio Commons as the closest Downtown Code analogue to OT's mixed-use core: one and two-story buildings are typical, with three to four stories possible at key anchor or corner locations, maximum 50 feet. Minimum first floor-to-floor height 12 feet; minimum upper floor height 10 feet. Other Downtown Code districts allow more height: the Entertainment District permits up to six stories (maximum 85 feet) with a parking structure. Confirm which Downtown Code district applies to the specific OT parcel before relying on a single height figure.
