Queens combines dense apartment corridors and growing high-rise districts like Long Island City, where FISP compliance is now a routine part of building operations.
Queens has become one of the fastest-growing high-rise markets in the city, and with that growth comes a large and expanding roster of buildings subject to the Facade Inspection Safety Program. Long Island City’s towers, the dense apartment corridors of Astoria, Jackson Heights, Flushing, and Forest Hills, and institutional buildings across the borough all cross the six-story threshold that triggers FISP.
The borough’s prewar and mid-century apartment buildings carry classic masonry maintenance needs - repointing, brick and terra cotta repair, lintel and cornice work - while its new towers bring curtain wall and sealant inspections. In every case a Qualified Exterior Wall Inspector must examine the facade hands-on and file within the correct Cycle 10 sub-cycle window, and any conditions found must be resolved before the next cycle.
We confirm your sub-cycle, arrange the critical examination, manage the DOB NOW filing, and provide progress inspections to keep any required repairs on code. For Queens owners managing multiple buildings, keeping every property’s status and deadline tracked in one place is the difference between routine compliance and a scramble against a closing window.
Send us your address and we will confirm whether FISP applies, which sub-cycle you are in, and when your report is due - at no charge.
