yeah, maybe the "standard" goes up to 37.5' in the outter bungalow belt. i was just ballparking by pulling distances off of google maps (far from an exact measure) in places like edison park, berwyn, clearing, and mt. greenwood.
Anyway, I took my kids over to a neighborhood playground the other day and loved how the low angle november setting sun was illuminating this row of classic Chicago "missing middle" housing.
