(A) Numbers required. For the proper identification of all houses and structures, an official house or building number, obtained from the City Planner, must be placed and maintained on each house or structure at or near the front entrance in such a manner that the number may be easily and clearly seen from the public street.
(1) If it is not practical to place a number at or near the building entrance, it must be placed and maintained by the owner in another suitable location so that it can be clearly seen from the public street.
(2) The house or building number required by this subchapter must consist of a series of figures with a minimum height of three inches, the surface of which must contrast with the color of the face of the building or structure upon which it is mounted.
(B) Structures on alley. In cases where a house or other structure is served primarily from a public alley, the official number must be placed and maintained at or near the rear entrance of the house or structure in such a manner that the number may be easily and clearly seen from the public alley.
