Staten Island stands apart from New York City's other boroughs—literally and figuratively. Connected to Manhattan only by ferry and to Brooklyn by the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge, this 58-square-mile borough offers a distinctly suburban character unique among NYC's five boroughs. With the lowest population density, most green space, and highest percentage of single-family homes in the city, Staten Island presents scanning challenges and opportunities found nowhere else in New York. From Victorian mansions perched on Todt Hill to waterfront developments along the North Shore, from historic colonial structures dating to the 1600s to modern planned communities, Staten Island's built environment reflects its evolution from rural farmland to suburban refuge for New Yorkers seeking space and greenery. The borough's architectural character includes ornate Queen Anne Victorian homes, Gilded Age mansions, Greek Revival waterfront estates, and contemporary suburban developments. Our Staten Island 3D scanning and survey services address the unique needs of this distinctly different borough—from capturing intricate Victorian millwork to mapping sprawling residential lots impossible to find in other parts of NYC. Understanding Staten Island's suburban infrastructure, parking requirements, and ferry-dependent transportation patterns is essential for any property documentation project in this often-overlooked but architecturally significant borough.

Staten Island Building Types We Document
Our team has extensive experience scanning Staten Island's diverse architectural landscape.
Victorian Mansions
Staten Island boasts NYC's finest collection of Victorian architecture, particularly Queen Anne style homes built as suburban retreats in the late 1800s and early 1900s. These ornate residences feature asymmetrical facades, wraparound porches, turrets and towers, decorative gables, and intricate woodwork including carved brackets, fretwork, and spindle details. Concentrated in St. George, Stapleton Heights, and Tottenville, these detached single-family homes occupy generous lots impossible to find elsewhere in NYC.
Scanning Notes
Victorian scanning requires extensive exterior documentation of ornamental features. Multiple scanner positions capture turrets, bay windows, and porch details. Interior millwork, original fireplaces, and period staircases need high-resolution capture. Large lots allow comprehensive exterior drone coverage including carriage houses and gardens.
Gilded Age Estates
Todt Hill and other elevated Staten Island neighborhoods contain mansions rivaling the grandeur of Newport or the Hudson Valley. Georgian Revival, Greek Revival, and Colonial Revival estates built for wealthy industrialists feature limestone facades, formal gardens, and period craftsmanship. Properties like the historic Seguine Mansion (1838) showcase Greek Revival waterfront architecture with original stonework and hand-carved details, while early 20th century mansions incorporate Tiffany windows, murals, and grand ballrooms.
Scanning Notes
Estate scanning projects require multi-day documentation with careful coordination of interior and exterior work. Formal rooms with ceiling murals and decorative plasterwork need scaffolding or elevated scanning. Period features like Tiffany glass require photographic documentation alongside 3D capture. Extensive grounds demand comprehensive drone mapping.
Suburban Single-Family Homes
The dominant building type across Staten Island, suburban single-family homes represent the borough's post-war development as a haven for families leaving denser NYC neighborhoods. Cape Cods, ranches, split-levels, and colonials built from the 1940s through today occupy tree-lined streets in neighborhoods like Annadale, Eltingville, and Huguenot. These homes feature driveways, garages, backyards, and the suburban amenities unavailable in other boroughs.
Scanning Notes
Suburban residential scanning benefits from easier site access with driveways and parking. Standard scanning workflows apply for most homes. Basement and attic access more common than in multi-family buildings. Lot surveys can incorporate drone mapping of property boundaries, pools, and landscaping features typical of Staten Island properties.
Waterfront Development
The North Shore transformation from industrial waterfront to mixed-use development has brought contemporary architecture to Staten Island. The St. George waterfront features modern residential towers, retail spaces, and the Empire Outlets—NYC's only outlet shopping destination. New developments blend contemporary design with views of Manhattan and the Verrazzano Bridge, representing Staten Island's evolution from bedroom community to destination.
Scanning Notes
Waterfront projects require coordination with construction schedules and weather conditions. Salt air and wind affect equipment and scheduling. Capture harbor views and waterfront context alongside building documentation. New construction as-builts integrate with BIM workflows. Drone operations over water require special planning and safety protocols.
Historic Colonial Structures
Staten Island contains some of New York's oldest surviving structures, including buildings predating the American Revolution. The Billiou-Stillwell-Perine House (1663) represents rare French medieval architecture and stands as one of NYC's oldest buildings. Historic Richmond Town preserves colonial-era structures documenting three centuries of American life. These irreplaceable historic resources require precise documentation for preservation and restoration planning.
Scanning Notes
Historic structure scanning serves preservation documentation and restoration planning. Survey-grade accuracy essential for monitoring structural conditions over time. Coordinate with historic preservation officers and archaeologists as needed. Non-invasive techniques critical for fragile original materials. Documentation may support National Register nominations or NYC Landmark status applications.
Scanning in Staten Island: What You Need to Know
Staten Island operations differ significantly from other NYC boroughs. Ferry access from Manhattan adds travel time—coordinate equipment transport via Verrazzano Bridge from Brooklyn for efficiency. Free parking exists throughout most of the borough, eliminating the parking logistics that complicate Manhattan and Brooklyn work. Residential neighborhoods often have no sidewalks, affecting pedestrian site access. Many properties feature extensive grounds, pools, and outbuildings requiring comprehensive site documentation. The borough's lower density means longer travel between scan locations compared to Manhattan's vertical concentration. Hurricane Sandy recovery work continues in some coastal areas, affecting properties in Midland Beach, New Dorp Beach, and Oakwood Beach. Cell service can be limited in some southern areas, affecting cloud-based workflows during fieldwork.
