Abstract
An arrangement of dwelling units for multiple-family housing includes a plurality of elongate units which are arranged relative to one another in a quadrangle configuration such that a major portion of one side of each unit cooperates with the major portion of a side of the other three units to generally enclose an open-air court. Each elongate unit is of a double width comprising an outer single-wide section which is assembled to an inner single-wide section at the building site. This enables each of the single-wide sections to be preconstructed at a plant and then transported over the highway to the actual construction location. Additionally, each of the elongate units is arranged with a living section and adjacent thereto a storage section which may be a garage area. Each of the elongate units has the free end of its living section disposed adjacent a side of a storage section of another elongate unit at a location which is remote from the free end of the storage section and this defines the major portion which in turn results in defining the enclosed open-air court.
