All the Houses

How come most the streets of homes except some Somerville homes are set back the same distance from the curb?

What are the historical zoning-statements acknowledging and granting the territories in conjuction with the langauge of their deed? Or, which, came first?

Just something I wonder driving by. Anyone know?

Good questions. The nature of zoning ordinances, meets and bounds and how they (d)evolve could be a study in itself....or so i've always thought having professionally dealt with such arcana many times over.
