We are thinking about closing off one of the windows in our house. Basically removing the window and bricking it. Do we need a permit? tried searching but can’t seem to find an answer. Thanks

  1. Technically, yes a permit is needed. NYC has a light and ventilation code that must be met. So you would need to show how you still comply if it is a habitable room.
