IMPORTANT: NYC sidewalk shed requirements have changed, bringing shorter permit cycles and increased progress reporting requirements for building owners and property managers. Under Local Laws 48 and 51 of 2025, sidewalk shed permits are now limited to 90 days. For applicable sheds, renewals require progress documentation from a Registered Design Professional (RDP), along with work progress logs maintained at least weekly.

Beginning with the second renewal, work generally must be performed during the permit period to address the condition requiring the shed. Failure to meet applicable progress requirements may result in DOB penalties.

These changes make proactive planning, inspection, documentation, and coordination more important than ever.

AMAA Engineers can help you stay ahead of the 90-day cycle with engineering evaluations, inspections, progress documentation, and façade compliance support.

Have a sidewalk shed currently in place? Contact us at amaa-eng.com to discuss your building’s compliance requirements.

A great day on the course with the IFMA Greater New York City Chapter! ⛳

AMAA’s Yale Stogel was proud to chair the IFMA Golf Committee at this recent Tamarack Country Club outing in Greenwich, Connecticut. AMAA was also proud to support the outing as a Caddy Bib Sponsor.

Congratulations to the honorees, Frank and Dillon, as well as everyone involved in making the event a success. Thank you to IFMA Greater New York City Chapter for another memorable industry outing.

Preparedness starts long before the unexpected happens. This National Preparedness Month, we’re highlighting the role structural engineering plays in creating safer, more resilient buildings. From accounting for wind and environmental loads to evaluating existing conditions and designing effective structural systems, engineers consider how buildings will respond to a variety of forces and conditions throughout their lifespan.

At AMAA, thoughtful structural design means planning not only for today, but for what buildings may face tomorrow. Visit amaa-eng.com to learn more about our services.
