When an NYC property sits within a designated historic district or is an individual landmark, any sidewalk modification beyond basic patching must undergo this review before physical work begins. The process ensures that replacement materials, finish textures, color tints, and scoring lines seamlessly blend with the existing historic streetscape. Navigating this review successfully protects property owners from receiving costly stop-work orders and environmental violations during their repair projects.
