When you resize the browser width window to 1100px or less, there's a big huge gap at the bottom of the hero banner and the section below it.
I believe this is caused by the fixed height of 700px that I set on the hero banner. I tried setting it to height:auto so that the height will be auto-calculated when the browser window resizes, but it doesn't work.
Any ideas? I'm trying to do this with just CSS and not rely on bootstrap or grids / flexbox at the moment.

<p class="generic-center-text generic-content-text">Grace Patricia Kelly (November 12, 1929 – September 14, 1982) was an American actress who, after marrying Prince Rainier III in April 1956, became Princess of Monaco.<br /><br />After embarking on an acting career in 1950, at the age of 20, Kelly appeared in New York City theatrical productions and more than 40 episodes of live drama productions broadcast during the early 1950s Golden Age of Television. In October 1953, she gained stardom from her performance in the film Mogambo. </p>

<p class="generic-right-text generic-content-text">Tragedy struck on September 14, 1982, when Princess Grace and her younger daughter was driving along the steep cliffs of the Côte d'Azur region of southern France. She suffered a stroke and lost control of the vehicle, which spun off the cliff's edge and plunged down a 45-foot embankment. Mother and daughter were rushed to a hospital where Princess Grace spent 24 hours in a coma before passing away at the age of 52. Princess Stéphanie survived with minor injuries.<br /><br />
Grace Kelly remained in the public eye for most of her life. Her on-screen beauty, self-confidence and mystery enchanted the world, and her serenity and poise as Princess Consort piqued the media's attention. Of this attention, she remarked with typical humor and grace, "The freedom of the press works in such a way that there is not much freedom from it." Kelly's very public life is set to be portrayed by Nicole Kidman in the film Grace of Monaco (2014).</p>
