Zoning encompasses and dictates a comprehensive set of criteria related to a property ranging from permissible uses, parking requirements, building size, floor area, air rights, and more. The Zoning code holds particular significance when developing a property in a densely populated city, such as New York. It is highly advisable to consult with an architect prior to purchasing a property, or developing real estate in order to analyze potential pitfalls that may be financially damaging, or to uncover property factors that are disadvantageous.
