Washington Heights 3D Laser Scanning FAQ

Can you scan Washington Heights pre-war apartments?
Yes, we regularly document pre-war apartments in Washington Heights. These buildings feature high ceilings, original details, and spacious layouts that our Matterport Pro3 captures beautifully. Our Leica BLK360 is portable enough for walk-up buildings without elevators.
Is Washington Heights a historic district?
Washington Heights has several historic areas: Audubon Terrace and Jumel Terrace are LPC-designated, and the Dominican Historic District was state-designated in 2024. However, most residential blocks are NOT in designated districts, so standard DOB permits apply without LPC review.
Do you work with healthcare facilities like Columbia/NewYork-Presbyterian?
Yes, we work with healthcare facilities for documentation, renovation planning, and facility management. Our equipment handles clinical spaces, and we coordinate with facility operations to minimize disruption. We understand healthcare compliance requirements.
How does the hilly terrain affect your work?
Washington Heights has significant elevation changes - Bennett Park is Manhattan's highest point. This affects parking and equipment transport but not scanning quality. We plan logistics accordingly. The terrain creates interesting architectural features and views we capture.
What's the typical cost for a Washington Heights apartment scan?
Washington Heights apartment scanning typically ranges from $800-1,800 depending on size and deliverables. A 1,200 sqft pre-war unit with Matterport tour might be $1,000-1,200. Laser scanning with floor plans for renovation costs more. We provide detailed quotes for your specific needs.
