Re: [Tagging] reviving hollow way

I am actually a bit surprised by this. It may be a research related term, but "hollow way" seems quite common in British English archaeology... See these links: - Historic England: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1016748 - Shorne Woods Arhaeology Group:

With building:part you are actually describing 3D volumes. These volumes don't necessarily start at ground level, but ideally should not intersect in 3D. As you can see in the Simple 3D building specification, you can set a "building:min_level" and "min_height" to "raise" a certain part from
