history
Roots in 《诗经·周颂·良耜》: 其比如栉 - "arranged as close as comb teeth". The four-character form appears in 鲍照's Southern-dynasty 《咏史》 poem: 京城十二衢，飞甍各鳞次.
memory
鳞 (fish scales) + 栉 (comb teeth) - two things famous for being packed in tight parallel rows. Buildings, shops, or houses "like scales and teeth": dense, aligned, unbroken.
