Older low rise apartments are based upon assumptions typical for dwellings built prior to 1950. These assumptions not only affect the materials that the building is based upon, but the room size, number of plumbing fixtures per unit, and the number of windows and doors are also affected. Low rise apartments typically have few or one common exterior entrance, a lobby area, and individual apartment entrances located along interior hallways. Compared to the newer apartment occupancies (Occupancy 1100 - Apartments, Low Rise or Occupancy 1200 - Apartments, High Rise), older apartments typically have higher quality finishes but fewer building services. This occupancy represents older apartment buildings of four stories or less, containing more than four dwelling units. Each apartment includes its own kitchen and bathroom as well as bedroom(s) and living area.
