A Tight Grid, Older Stock
Surf City is one of the island's older boroughs and it is laid out accordingly: a compact grid, narrow lots, and a lot of original cottages sitting between newer elevated construction on the same block.
That mix is the defining feature. On many streets a teardown means working between a raised modern house on one side and an original single story cottage on the other, with a few feet of clearance to each. The structure comes down top down and material gets pulled inward so nothing travels toward a property line.
Between Two Different Neighbors
The thing that makes Surf City work distinctive is the mismatch on either side. A raised modern house has pilings, an underside, and utilities in places an older cottage does not, and the original cottage next to it has none of that but sits far closer to the line.
Both get walked before the machine moves. Clearance to each side sets where the excavator sits and which way material gets pulled, and that decision does not get revisited once the roof is open.
