Question for Bronx Properties

[Anna Cerda]

Hi Everyone,

I have two separate Bronx multi-family properties and need the following information:

1.  CO does not say that the property has accessory parking, and to apply for a driveway in-front of the house I need a architect or engineer, can someone recommend the best way to know if this is feasible, without incurring insane fees.

2. I would like to create a duplex- this is in my primary residence and I know in NY the Yes, housing was approved but not in effect, for an ADU. I also need an architect to help me with the process.

Any recommendations of someone you have worked with, would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

Quote from @Mohammed Rahman:

Hey — for the driveway, your best bet is to start with a zoning map and check the DOB zoning documents online. Sometimes you can get a zoning consultant to do a quick feasibility check for like $300-$500 instead of hiring an architect right away.

 Where is the best place to get a zoning map and what do I look for.
