In the event a building is to be built where there is such an established average setback different from that required hereinafter and there are existing buildings on one (1) side only, the front setback of said new building need be no greater than that of the next adjoining existing building. In case the building is to be built where there is such an established average setback and there are existing buildings on both sides of the said new building, the front setback shall not be required to be greater than that which would be established by connecting a straight line between the forward most portion of the first adjacent building on each side.
