When most people hear Landmark Windows, they think historic, and historic doesn’t always sound like high performance. We often get questions about whether landmark-approved windows can truly meet today’s standards.
When it comes to historic preservation, the elegance of a door lies not only in its design but also in its anatomy. From grand entryways in landmark buildings to charming brownstone doors in New York City, understanding the parts of a door can help you make more informed decisions.
Installing 350-pound, 10-foot-tall steel fire-rated ceramic glazed lot line windows is no easy feat—especially in a historic TriBeCa building with just five feet of clearance between neighboring structures. When working several stories up, over skylights and alleyways, precision is key. These projects demand careful planning, expertise, and patience to ensure both compliance and craftsmanship.
New York City is known for its rich architectural history, with buildings that showcase a variety of window styles from different eras. These windows not only contribute to the aesthetic beauty of the buildings but also reflect the cultural and historical significance of the time in which they were built.
Nestled in the heart of New York City, 214 West 16th Street stands as a captivating example of architectural evolution. Built in 1898, this brick building seamlessly blends the Federal Style with touches of Neoclassical, Beaux-Arts, and Baroque elements.
