Landmarked Brownstone on Historic Street in Ft. Greene - replacing windows

Hello Brownstoner community.
Looking for advice as my COOP enters into a full facade makeover that includes replacing the 8 windows that face the street.
#1 If there are folks out there who have had to endure this cost – any rough estimates regarding window replacements that meet code for Landmarks would be super helpful. We are trying to get a general guesstimate/sense before we start meeting with contractors. #2 Any recommendations for contractors or folks who have done window install would be greatly appreciated!
All the best,
LK

Heights Historic did mine with Kolbe Majesta Heritage all wood windows. Brick to brick with new insulation. Each window was 52′ by 104′. $14K for 4. LPC included.

I’m currently looking at about $5,000 per window, which includes permits, LPC filing, the actual windows, brick to brick install, and interior molding and wall repair/replace/repaint.
