Pavement type where the open area denotes a subterranean level
Vaulted sidewalks, aso calle dsidewalk vaults and areaways are sidewalks that are not placed directly on the ground. Rather, there is an empty space below them where the ground level used to be. This may happen where the street level has been raised over time, or where basements are extended, or as utility vaults.
Sidewalk vaults may be protected as historica architecture, or filling them required for planning permission.[1]
