" (3) Rear yards: Rear yards shall have a basic minimum yard depth of six feet, provided that the hori- zontal distance to the rear lot line of any point on any building face shall not be less than one- half its height above the rear lot line. " (4) Wherever a lot has more than one building, or a building with more than one main vertical element, each such main building or main vertical element is deemed to have its own front, side, and rear yards. " (5) Enclosed portions of buildings, including enclosed porches, stairways, landing places, or balconies, �overing in aggregate not more than one-third of ea�h side of the maximum buildable area of the lot may extend into any required yard up to the basic minimum yard depth or width, provided that the horizontal distance to the respective lot line which it faces of any point on any building � face shall not be less than one-fourth its height above su ch lot line. " (6) Architectural features, such as cornices, eaves, canopies, f ireplaces and unenclosed portions of buildings, including unenclosed porches, stairways, � landing places or balconies, may extend into an -�`-z!_�� interior side yard or rear yard, provided that _ '�'�----� �� the horizontal distance to the respective lot � _ line which it faces of any point on such archi- tectural features or unenclased portions of a building may only extend into a required front yard or side yard adjacent to a street to a � maximum of three feet. " (b) As used in this section, the following definitions shall apply: " (1) Horizontal distance to the lot line: The distance from any point on a building face or architectural . feature measured along a horizontal line to the point of its intersection with a vertical line extended from a point on the lot line wh ich .such building face or architectural feature faces so as to inter- sect at right angles with such horizontal line. " (2) Height above the lot line: The distance between the point of intersection and the point on the lot line " measured along the vertical line as described in (1) above. � -10-
