#Chazon Ish<ref>[https://www.hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=14336&st=&pgnum=297 Chazon Ish OC 107:5]</ref> holds if there are three walls of omed merubeh surrounding a street, that street is considered a reshut hayachid. | |||
#Once it is a reshut hayachid, it is as though all of the 4 surrounding walls are closed with walls.<ref>[https://www.hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=14336&st=&pgnum=202 Chazon Ish OC 65:45] holds that once an area is a reshut hayachid because of omed merubeh on 3 walls, the area it enclosed is like it has 4 complete walls closing it off. Those walls can then be used to enclose other areas.</ref> Those halachic walls then serve to transform the streets intersecting it into reshiyot hayachid as well. | |||
#In the picture to the left street A is considered a reshut hayachid because it is surrounded with three omed merubeh walls. Then imaginary lines are drawn to enclose streets B, C, and D so that they're broken up in two and each side has omed merubeh on three sides. | |||
