THE BUILDING ORDINANCE, We again regume our survey of the Building Ordinance, in the belief that anything which tends to throw light up on so extensivè a subject as it deals with, will tend to facilitate the labours of the Committee appointed to revise. Having dealt with some of the points which pre- sented themselves in the first balf of the Ordinance, let us commence with the 32nd Section, to which a certain difficul ty in understanding, it specially directed our attention. It defines the "building owner" to be such one of the own of the premises saparated by, or adjains ing to any party structure." But we naturally ask "such one as what?'
