Landmark Preservation
Every Building Tells a Story
Historic buildings are more than structures — they are pieces of our city’s heritage. Over time, exposure to weather, pollution, and age can cause stone erosion, masonry cracks, and fading details. Preserving these landmarks requires expert craftsmanship, specialized techniques, and a deep respect for architectural history.
Why its important ?
- Historical Significance: Preserves the cultural and architectural heritage of New York City.
- Structural Integrity: Maintains the safety and longevity of aging buildings.
- Aesthetic Preservation: Protects original design features, craftsmanship, and materials.
- Regulatory Compliance: Ensures all work meets LPC, DOB, and Local Law 11 requirements.
- Property Value: Maintains and often enhances the value of historic properties.
