What is an "annex"?
An annex is a separate building or part of a building that is attached to or added onto a larger structure. It is often used to provide extra space for storage, offices, or additional rooms. Annexes are commonly found in schools, hospitals, and large homes, serving as extensions to the main building. They may be connected by a hallway or separate, depending on the design. The purpose of an annex is to accommodate the growing needs of the main building without requiring a complete redesign or construction of a new structure.
