Opinion by
Judge Mencer,
Max Slavitz (Slavitz) is a part owner of a tract of land containing 21 acres in West Whiteland Township in Chester County. Acting for all the owners, he applied to the Zoning Hearing Board of West Whiteland Township (Board) for a special exception which would provide the necessary permission to build 252 garden type apartment units on this land. Since the land was in an “R-3” residence district, it was necessary for Slavitz to establish that the contemplated building project could be authorized under the zoning ordinance as a special exception.
