I need to replace the 3 front windows in the garden apt. in my building…Is this a scary process b/c of the landmark commission, or will it necessarily cost me more b/c of the landmark statis?
Thx!

  1. “Scary” is relative. If you hire an architect, they can guide you through the process (which is relatively painless). I assume you are intending to replace the windows with historically correct windows in any case (regardless of the LPC issue). The only cumbersome issue is that LPC takes their time reviewing things, and no one can control that. If you do this without LPC approval, they may (however unlikely) fine you.

  2. Had very bad experience with Air-Flow, specially the
    installation. My two neighbors unfortunately had
    the same bad experience. Their windows never worked properly. I thought I should share it.

  3. I just did the same project and the window vendor (EZ Tilt) handled the lanmark approval and pulled the permit. It cost me an add’l $1500 but it was worth it to avoid the hassle.
