Restoring a cornice in Manhattan

The Manhattan records in this catalog divide into two practical building groups: prewar apartment and taller facade programs, and townhouse or rowhouse work. The recorded addresses reach from Greenwich Village and SoHo to the Upper East and Upper West Sides, Harlem, Hamilton Heights, and Washington Heights, so one borough label does not imply one construction system.

For cornices, identify the existing material, anchorage, concealed corrosion or decay, flashing, drainage, and which elements will be retained, repaired, or reproduced.

The current intersection lists 14 contractors that offer this work and have separate local evidence. Within that set, 4 contractors have this service named on projects at 11 confirmed buildings, including recorded landmark building, prewar apartment, townhouse, house of worship building types and named brick, cast-stone, steel, stucco, terra-cotta materials. These are catalog observations, not a description of every building in Manhattan.
