What is Local Law 11 / FISP? Who does it apply to? What are the deadlines?

Local Law 11 — officially known as the Facade Inspection & Safety Program (FISP) — is a New York City law that requires the exterior walls and appurtenances of certain buildings to be regularly inspected by a licensed professional. The goal is simple: keep building facades safe for occupants, pedestrians, and neighbors below.

If a facade is found to be unsafe or deteriorating, the building owner is required by law to repair it. Sadhia Construction handles the full process — inspection coordination, repairs, and DOB sign-off.

Who Does It Apply To?

Local Law 11 applies to all buildings in New York City that are:

  • 6 stories or taller, AND
  • Located within 25 feet of a public sidewalk, street, or area accessible to pedestrians

This includes residential apartment buildings, co-ops, condominiums, mixed-use buildings, and commercial properties. If your building meets these criteria, compliance is not optional — it is a legal requirement enforced by the NYC Department of Buildings.



What Are the Deadlines?

The DOB divides NYC buildings into inspection cycles called FISP Cycles. We are currently in Cycle 10, which covers the period 2025–2029. Your building's deadline is determined by the last digit of your block number:

Block Number Ends In Filing Deadline
4, 5, 6 February 21, 2026
7, 8, 9 February 21, 2027
0, 1, 2, 3 February 21, 2028


What Happens If You Don't Comply?


Fines starting at $1,000 per month for late filings

DOB violations placed on your building's permanent record

Mandatory sidewalk shed installation at your expense until repairs are completed

Potential Emergency Declaration orders for unsafe conditions

Loss of control over project timing, repair costs, and contractor selection

The earlier you act, the more control you have over timing, cost, and contractor selection. Don't wait until enforcement begins.
