low-rise
Not a tower
Low-rise describes buildings with few stories—typically under four or five floors, without elevators: a low-rise apartment complex, low-rise office buildings.
The term contrasts with high-rise.
Low-rise also describes pants or underwear that sit below the natural waist: low-rise jeans.
