Under the revised name of the Facade Inspection Safety Program (FISP), formerly known as Local Law 10 11 of 1998, it is mandatory for buildings with a minimum of six stories to undergo periodic facade inspections. These inspections encompass an evaluation of any objects affixed to the facade that have the potential to detach and cause harm or damage, including light fixtures, air conditioners, and even tiles.
Afterwards, the report is sent to the department of buildings (DOB) for evaluation. Only Exterior Wall Inspectors who are approved by the DOB are eligible to conduct the inspection. The report that is presented to the DOB categorizes the building as safe, safe with a repair and maintenance plan, or unsafe.

In accordance with Local Law 10 11 NYC, technicians or architects have the option to assess conditions of a building’s exterior fire escape. However, under Local Law 11, this requirement has been expanded. The physical examination must include at least one drop from a building or another measuring platform. FISP, previously referred to as Local Law 11, mandates that owners of buildings taller than six stories must have their exterior walls and related structures inspected every five years. Once the evaluation is complete, the building must submit a technical statement to the department of buildings, indicating whether facade elements are deemed safe, safe with a repair and preservation plan, or unsafe. If any facade elements are deemed unsafe, they must be promptly addressed and repaired within 30 days.
In 1980, Mayor Ed Koch introduced Local Law 10 as an enhancement to the city’s Building Code, aiming to tackle and assess the safety hazards posed by the deterioration of building facades within the city.
All turned, Local Law 11 mandates that the physical inspection must include at least one drop from a building or other search platform. The NYC Facade Inspection Safety Program (FISP), formerly referred to as Local Law 10 11, requires buildings in NYC that are taller than six stories to undergo facade inspections and repairs every five years. In this article, Noah Builders delves into the origins of FISP and elaborates on how Local Law 11 impacts individuals interested in purchasing real estate in New York City.
