the residence or home of 3 or more families living independently of each
other. A "multiple dwelling" shall not be deemed to include a hospital,
convent, monastery, asylum or public institution, or a fireproof building
used wholly for commercial purposes except for not more than one janitor's
apartment and not more than one penthouse occupied by not more than 2

hospital staff which are not located in any building primarily used for
hospital use, shall be deemed to be a "multiple dwelling".
