Shouldn’t take much to install it. Not sure what the relevance is between the window and the brick building… I would do it. Call me at 347-276-6528 Levi SoHoAppliances

Because nobody asked me the price I paid. But since you have, our total cost for 6 inserts, each roughly 40×55″, including tax, shipping, custom geometry (our windows are arched at the top) and installation was about $2700\. Replacing our windows isn’t an option. We’re in a landmarked 48-unit co-op. The entire building would need to replace all windows at once – a plan which we’ve been working on for years and is still a few years away. THAT will cost us considerably more in the form of an assessment (based on current numbers, our portion will be around $10k.

Have you priced Indow? When I did, they seemed very expensive. For 2x that, you can get a decent window. Why don’t people like l11201 post the price they paid?

Is this a business account? The regulation doesn’t protect business accounts, but you should be protected for a personal account. The ease at cloning magnetic striped debit cards has made this a common means of theft. Finally banks are beginning to include chips in debit and credit cards to make theives’ life harder. Europe had been doing this for two decades, Canada for one and we’re just starting.

Cooper Industries makes a great recessed light (called the Mini Quiet), which is trimless so the light is flush with the ceiling and paintable. When used with a white interior “can”, the lights are barely noticeable when they are off. They are pricey, but we used them sparingly partnered with hanging lights and they were well worth it.

Yes to wall sconces and overhead pendants. Also lots of table and floor lamps to prevent dark corners. Make sure you get enough outlets when you renovate — you can never have too many!

I hate the overuse of recessed lighting, it’s so commercial looking. I think a few cans in the kitchen, not more than 4 is good general lighting. Pendants are much better option, and there are thousands of varieties. I have track lighting, which I’m partial to as you can adjust the light, and am surprised so many hate tracks. Don’t see why you can’t light a brownstone easily. In my 20×12 living room, most of the time I have one pendant (now with a 11w led!) and the 4 track overheads (50w halogens) on half-bright. And my eyes are none too good. But then, I did paint the oppressive dark wood white.

We’ve had them for almost 2 years on our (3) wooden-frame, single-pane 4×8 windows and love them. In fact, Indow did a blog post about us: http://www.indowwindows.com/blog/case-studies/slaying-noise-and-drafts-in-new-york-city/ I’ve posted about them previously here in the forums so a search should turn up my prior comments rather than my duplicating content. PS – 2 of our neighbors now have them as well and they are very pleased with the results.

Also, there are plenty of kits on Amazon, etc. for backlighting a tv, which can make viewing more pleasant if you’ve got a couple of inches between the tv and the wall to install it.

Wall sconces can help–we put in a lot that have a pretty high maximum wattage, but we put them on dimmers for more control over the light.

We have a speedbump on our block in South Slope about 2 houses up from ours and our bedroom is in the front. I opposed it on noise grounds, but I have been pleasantly surprised that it has not been a real problem. The bumps that are added now are not as steep as older bumps and that minimizes the added truck noise.

August, The law is that the bank is responsible. This is a Daily News article about it. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/crime/friends-nyu-charged-ripping-banks-422k-claiming-atm-card-thefts-article-1.431211 I would suggest that you fill out a Police Report. Shamrock

lol @BobMarvin well considering every fire response south of Clark street is going to hit the 3 speedbumps on Henry st which is against NYC DOT regulations…….I don’t see how these bumps can move forward. This being said still waiting for the home addresses of the BHA executive committee to be provided so I can implement an art project where we replay the noise outside our apartment at 137 Henry St from the trucks/cars hitting this speedbump on a decibel by decibel basis. It was nice CB2 responded above but BHA and NYC DOT are yet to respond to the questions.

Several PLG blocks have speed bumps, installed after requests from their respective block associations) with no complaints. We tried to get these installed on my block (Midwood II) with no success because the fire house is around the corner and the block is frequently used by fire trucks. I wish we had Dean’s “problem”!

How many red herrings can “Dean” throw into his many postings? – They dont work – They work but they are noisy – They slow FDNY – My street is not that busy/busy/too busy – I never head about this – I heard about it but dont like the answer From one study on the matter: Distinct from speed limit signs or stop signs, traffic calming measures such as speed humps, street closures, median barriers, and traffic circles are successful in providing long-term safety for pedestrians and motorists because they are physical structures with designs that are self-enforcing rather than requiring police enforcement.6–8

When I stay in Brooklyn Heights, as I did these past 5 days, as compared to many parts of NYC, it does feel like the suburbs. Which is why I like staying there.
