However, for building entrances providing direct access to the lowest story located above the base flood elevation, a recess shall be permitted to have a depth of up to 10 feet as measured from the street line, provided the width of such recess does not exceed 20 feet and the height of such recessed area is not less than 15 feet at any point as measured from the base flood elevation ;

(b)        Maximum height

The street wall of a building, or portion thereof, shall rise to a minimum height of 20 feet and a maximum height of 40 feet before setback. The maximum height of a building or other structure shall be 60 feet, provided any portion of a building that exceeds a height of 40 feet shall be set back from the street wall of the building at least 20 feet.
