If you look at the windows of that building, you will see that they are flush to the building's facade, and the facade rises straight up from the property line. That means that they are what are called lot-line windows - they are built exactly on the lot line, and those windows were not counted in the required windows for the apartments. In other words, when the building was constructed the developer knew that the windows could be blocked and all tenants - rental or coop/condo - must be informed of that fact. There are 100's of these buildings, especially in Manhattan. So yeah, I'd be pissed too but they should have known that this would eventually happen. Lesson: always look at the outside of the building before you rent or buy an apartment.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12251637279968762593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-51570809909458528842012-09-27T18:58:19.581-04:002012-09-27T18:58:19.581-04:00Well, if you had an apartment with several windows...Well, if you had an apartment with several windows that became bricked up, you might be upset about it. I thought you couldn't build over someone's windows either.
