I think that the answer could be a combination of Rivka's and LabRat's ideas.

We have a low hill. The hill is "dug" from its back side, and at the base of this hill is built a high building.
On the high building is built Clark's apartment, which has its entrance on the other side of the hill.

Piece of cake. wink

Still, I have a question:
Are we sure that above Clark's apartment there aren't more floors?
'Cause if there are, on the first building must be built another building :rolleyes:

Or maybe Clark just moved goofy

And I have to agree that writers on series on L&C, who write just because they get paid, not like us who write for fun laugh , use to do mistakes like this one, because they haven't watched carefully the previous episodes.
I also agree with you, though... I've always tried to picture the situations of a movie or a book in my mind, and explain everything.

I have another suggestion (probably a silly one):
Maybe Martha pulled Clark down from Lois' apartment.
When I watched this episode, this was the impression I'd had.
But I have to admit that this was one of the first I watched, and hadn't learned the characters' environment very carefully... blush

I hope that it helped, and didn't confuse you more laugh
