are you talking about the small gap and the fact that the firewall isn't closed? houston may be unique in that they are building new construction that leaves gangways like that, that can't be walked down. generally speaking new zero lot line construction closes that gap...it was common in the 19th century in the u.s. to leave varying width gangways like that smaller than what a man could walk down in the older cities of the midwest but not as common now...it's usually like 3 feet (or whatever) or completely closed.

Basically wouldn't a tiny gap like that mean that replacing the sheathing basically be impossible in the case of water infiltration?
