Corner lot

A corner lot fronts two streets that intersect, giving it two street lines and no rear lot line in the ordinary sense. The classification rewrites its obligations: front-yard treatment typically applies along both frontages, the rear-yard rule is handled specially, and coverage tables commonly allow corners a fuller footprint than interior lots — a recognition that a corner building borrows light and sky from two streets rather than one.

Corners also carry practical distinctions: curb cuts face tighter restrictions near intersections, and the double frontage that retail prizes is partly consumed by those access limits. In both the rules and the market, position on the block is destiny, and the corner is its own condition.
