we are looking at apartments in this bldg. Anyone know of problems getting alterations approved.? I understand this bldg and most in the area use a one man architect firm to review and approve everything.

I am the broker on an apartment in contract there, and the owners I have talked to have indicated the "usual" level of building attention to renovations -- you're going to need approval, you're not going to get wet-over-dry, you have to work with the building super on the hours that your crew can renovate -- but that within that framework, the building isn't hyper the way some buildings can be.

The architect a lot of co-ops use to review plans is Elliott Glass: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/26/realestate/26cov.html

Another is http://www.midtownpreservation.com/

Andyoh,

I renovated an apartment in that building, it was a while ago but it was a pretty easy building to work in. My client did not have any problems getting hers approved and it was a complete gut of a two bedroom apartment, including knocking down walls.

If they use the same engineer you should be fine

Hey, primer:
Please ask the bigwigs at streeteasy why they didn't respond to my question about why I could not read/find
the other comments posted on their "Own Your Home" blog.

I was posting perfectly nice comments and I was the only person willing to post on there, as those comments appeared with the real name of the person posting. I saw the number of other comments listed but could not find those comments. I only saw my comments posted.

Instead of answering that question, they were so petty as to stop posting my comments in that blog section.
Just because I asked them that question.

Truth, they don't like you, so you should change your name to Wbottom.

huntersburg: They don't like being asked a simple question.
I wondered if I was being trolled on the blog as I get trolled on the discussion boards.

As you can see, the two biggest trolls stopped by above to troll me.
c.c. and his buddy wbottom/yikes.
As if they are beloved by all.

Anyway, se could have responded, just to inform me that those other comments listed were deleted.
I was just wondering why I couldn't find those comments.
But noooo, they got their knickers in a bunch and stopped posting my comments as punishment for asking the question.

I don't read the blog anymore and it has probably gone back to having no comments at all.
What if they had a blog comment section and nobody came?
Empty party.
