Erecting walls

they look cheap and often dont block much sounds. Good news is they are clean and go in and out fairly easily. I would venture to say 90% of co op boards will want to approve this a good deal may disallow it as creating a one bedroom may require the building change filings with the city. I have heard of boards that specifically told someone not to tell the DOB for this very reason. I am sure the other idiots on here will either repeat what I said, or try to add value with something no one knows that doesn't matter. Keep in mind that streeteasy is filled with damaged people who need medication and for some reason all congregate here. Also RE brokers. But I repeate myself.

repeat (no e)

Kaydee,

It is important to know that many buildings are not allowing pressurized walls any more. Some are even requiring permits and architectural plans which can become costly

you will need to get coop board's permission for installing a wall, but not if installing shoji screens or some sliding door system.

some coops will completely disallow the walls, others will require a DOB filing and the most lacks will not care much at all.

AS i said, they would repeat what i said.

Just used roomdividersny in a 750sf 1 br to make a baby room and they were awesome and cost about $1000-1500 depending on style. Coop allowed the wall with no problem.

It definitely differs from management company to management company so I would ask them first and see if they even allow pressurized walls. I know that if they don't, like Stuy Town, you can use free-standing walls or even bookcase walls which don't go to the ceiling but are still a barrier. I started up a blog about pressurized walls in the city for a class at NYU feel free to check it out http://pressurizedwallsguide.blogspot.com
