Interior building dimensions

Check, double check, triple check.

Repeated units can morph over time, and even within a building plan, especially if the building has a subtle shape change (i.e. parallelogram) or there are outside corner and inside corner units.

Check for dimensional regularity of critical spaces (front entry, door clearances, kitchens, and bathrooms) to find anomolies in the layouts.

Georgia Commons units, especially types 1A & 1B, represent these unique conditions within "regularized" layouts.
