Why Brooklyn Heights is different

Brooklyn Heights was designated NYC's first Landmark District in 1965 — predating almost every other preserved neighbourhood in the city. The housing stock is older too: Federal-style and Greek Revival rowhouses from the 1820s–1860s. The brick is softer, the joints are thinner, and the LPC's tolerance for mistakes is zero.

Our Brooklyn Heights process

We mortar-analyse before we quote, file the LPC permit before we mobilize, hand-cut every joint to preserve the original profile, and finish with a color-matched lime mortar. Most Brooklyn Heights facades are 3-story rowhouses — pipe scaffold, 8–12 working days, $12,000–$20,000 typical.
