    The standard by-laws (which, admittedly this scheme might not have) say this:

    12   Appearance of lot

    (1)  The owner or occupier of a lot must not, without the prior written approval of the owners corporation, maintain within the lot anything visible from outside the lot that, viewed from outside the lot, is not in keeping with the rest of the building.

    Believe it or not, that has been taken to include clothes drying on a rack INSIDE the apartment but which could be seen from outside. And, please, don’t anyone tell me looking inside someone’s window is an invasion of privacy.  It isn’t, unless it’s for salacious or other illegal purposes.
