our neighbors did this without a permit and got in trouble and fined because they built out over the existing siding. They did this by creating a new frame. This was considered an alteration and required a permit. so, while i do not think a permit is required if all you are doing is replacing siding, be sure you understand the scope of what will be done before just proceeding. also, if you have a tenant, a sidewalk shed could be required…

Photo is deceptive because this building is on Middagh Street in Brooklyn Heights Hist. District.

we replaced siding and windows in red hook without filing.

Ask DoB. They have eve hours for questions like this. Of course, they will say YES even if it’s to change a light bulb.

I believe the rule is that if you are removing only the siding and the house is only three stories (including the garden floor) (or rather under a certain height) you do not need to file. You can check with an expediter or architect to be sure.

Not necessary, not recommended.
