mr. riggins. i wanted to briefly say and point out that the deck that is there now has a larger footprint than what we are proposing to build. in the end you would get the reduction or you would get increased open space into the rear yard. i think this is a great improvement. it is a one-story deck. i think this would improve the open space or midblock open space into the neighboring property so it has a major benefit. basically we are just asking for habitable space under this roof deck. that was the reason for the compromise and our willingness to give up this larger deck and reduce the size of it. and mr. riggins, i want to point out he is the owner. he has lived there for quite a number of years. he does a magazine called thrasher magazine. i not a young one, but i believe that -- he also does, in his basement, his passion is for restoring very old antique cars. one of the reasons why he was hoping to do this outside that envelope and not within it. i can answer any questions. thank you. >> ok
