NYC is Not the Only City With Facade Ordinance Inspections

NYC is not the only city with strict facade ordinance regulations, like Local Law 11. Cities around the United States have taken facade health seriously to proactively recognize and correct unsafe conditions that can put pedestrians at risk of injury or cause property damage.

While the specific demands of each city’s ordinances differ, all regulations require that inspections be conducted at regular intervals.
