    (a)

    Height. Buildings or structures shall not exceed thirty-five (35) feet and shall not exceed two and one-half (2½) stories; except, that where a district C-1 joins districts R-3, R-3-S, R-4, R-4-S, R-P, O-1P, CBD, C-3, M-1 or M-2 within the same block, the height shall be increased to forty-five (45) feet or three (3) stories within that block.

No side yard is required; except, that where a side line of a lot in this district abuts upon the side line of a lot in districts R-1, R-2, R-2-S, R-3, R-3-S, R-4, or R-4-S, a side yard of not less than five (5) feet shall be provided.
