Most of Altadore is RC-2, but some—mostly 14A, 15th and 15A Street—are still R-C1.

Any RC-2 lot less than 50 ft wide is worth much less than a 50-footer, as the minimum parcel widths for semi-detached in R-C2 is 25 ft. My grandparents lived in Altadore and their old house was on a 49 ft lot, which meant the developer who eventually bought it had to buy the adjacent lot as well and split it into three lots @ ~33 ft instead of two semi-detached @ 25 ft apiece, hahahaha.
My mistake, I missed reading the zoning. They probably mean R-C1 and not R1 too, which has differences as well.

It is just a matter of time though as buildable lots become sparse before developers apply for land use re-designations to upzone R-C1s to R-C2s.
