Such a building may be called an <i>apartment building<\/i>, <i>apartment house<\/i> (in American English), <i>block of flats<\/i>, <i><a title=\"Tower block\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Tower_block\">tower block<\/a><\/i>, <i>high-rise<\/i> or, occasionally <i>mansion block<\/i> (in British English), especially if it consists of many apartments for <a title=\"Renting\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Renting\">rent<\/a>. In Scotland it is often called a <i>tenement<\/i>, which has a pejorative connotation elsewhere. Apartments may be owned by an <i>owner\/occupier<\/i> by leasehold tenure or rented by <i>tenants<\/i> (two types of <a title=\"Housing tenure\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Housing_tenure\">housing tenure<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>The term <i>apartment<\/i> is favored in <a title=\"North America\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/North_America\">North America<\/a> (although <i>flat<\/i> is used in the case of a unit which is part of a house containing two or three <a title=\"Unit (housing)\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Unit_%28housing%29\">units<\/a>, typically one to a floor) and also is the preferred term in <a title=\"Republic of Ireland\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Republic_of_Ireland\">Ireland<\/a>. The term <i>flat<\/i> is commonly, but not exclusively, used in the United Kingdom, <a title=\"Singapore\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Singapore\">Singapore<\/a>, <a title=\"Hong Kong\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Hong_Kong\">Hong Kong<\/a> and most <a title=\"Commonwealth of Nations\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Commonwealth_of_Nations\">Commonwealth<\/a> nations.<\/p>\n<p>In <a title=\"Malaysian English\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Malaysian_English\">Malaysian English<\/a>, <i>flat<\/i> often denotes a housing block of lesser quality meant for lower-income groups, while <i>apartment<\/i> is more generic and may also include luxury <a title=\"Condominium\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Condominium\">condominiums<\/a>. This usage has also been appearing in British English where <i>apartment<\/i> is used to denote expensive &#8216;flats&#8217; in exclusive and expensive residential areas in, for example, parts of London such as <a title=\"Belgravia\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Belgravia\">Belgravia<\/a> and <a title=\"Hampstead\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Hampstead\">Hampstead<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In <a title=\"Australian English\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Australian_English\">Australian English<\/a>, the term <i>flat<\/i> was traditionally used, but the term <i>apartment<\/i> is also frequently used, as is &#8220;unit,&#8221; short for &#8220;home unit&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Tenement (law)\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Tenement_%28law%29\">Tenement law<\/a> refers to the <a title=\"Feudalism\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Feudalism\">feudal<\/a> basis of permanent property such as land or rents. It may be found combined as in &#8220;<a title=\"Messuage\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Messuage\">Messuage<\/a> or Tenement&#8221; to encompass all the land, buildings and other assets of a property. (Wikipedia)<\/p>\n<p>In the United States, some apartment-dwellers own their own apartments, either as <a title=\"Cooperative\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Cooperative\">co-ops<\/a>, in which the residents own shares of a corporation that owns the building or development; or in <a title=\"Condominium\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Condominium\">condominiums<\/a>, whose residents own their apartments and share ownership of the public spaces. Most apartments are in buildings designed for the purpose, but large older <a title=\"House\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/House\">houses<\/a> are sometimes divided into apartments. The word <i>apartment<\/i> denotes a residential unit or section in a building. In some locations, particularly the United States, the word connotes a rental unit owned by the building owner, and is not typically used for a condominium.<\/p>\n<p>In the UK, some flat owners own shares in the company that owns the <a title=\"Fee simple\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Fee_simple\">freehold<\/a> of the building as well as holding the flat under a lease. This is commonly known as a &#8220;share of freehold&#8221; flat. The freehold company has the right to collect annual ground rents from each of the flat owners in the building. The freeholder can also develop or sell the building, subject to the usual planning and restrictions that might apply.<\/p>\n<p>In some countries the word <b><a title=\"Unit (housing)\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Unit_%28housing%29\">unit<\/a><\/b> is a more general term referring to both apartments and rental business <a title=\"Suite (address)\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Suite_%28address%29\">suites<\/a>. The word is generally used only in the context of a specific building; e.g., &#8220;This building has three units&#8221; or &#8220;I&#8217;m going to rent a unit in this building&#8221;, but not &#8220;I&#8217;m going to rent a unit somewhere.&#8221; In Australia, a <b>unit<\/b> refers to flats, apartments or even <a title=\"Semi-detached\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Semi-detached\">semi-detached<\/a> houses. Some buildings can be characterized as <i>mixed use buildings<\/i>, meaning part of the building is for commercial, business, or office use, usually on the first floor or first couple of floors, and there are one or more apartments in the rest of the building, usually on the upper floors.<\/p>\n<p>Post the direct URL (link) where your drawing, doodle, artwork is posted (e.g. your blog, Flickr) in the comments area of this post.
