Cobble Hill is the strictest LPC district in Brooklyn

Cobble Hill has some of the tightest material standards of any Brooklyn historic district. The LPC will reject Portland-heavy mortar mixes, wrong joint profiles, and the wrong color sand. We take a sample of your existing mortar, send it to a preservation lab, and submit the resulting recipe to the LPC before any work begins.

Federal-style detail work

Many Cobble Hill rowhouses combine soft handmade brick with brownstone door surrounds, iron lintels, and dentil cornices. We protect every ornamental element, mask cornices before repointing, and hand-cut joints around carved stone.
