Drone Photogrammetry in Inwood: Local Expertise

Inwood is Manhattan's northernmost neighborhood — pre-war mid-rise apartments from 1900-1945, Inwood Hill Park (Manhattan's last natural forest), and a growing affordable housing development scene. The Park Terrace West Historic District provides limited LPC protection, while the neighborhood's 85% residential character, Inwood NYC rezoning enabling new development, and proximity to the Harlem River ship canal create scanning demand for affordable housing documentation, residential renovation, and new construction monitoring.

Inwood Drone Photogrammetry FAQ

Can you scan both old pre-war buildings and new affordable housing developments?
Yes, Inwood has both historic pre-war buildings and new affordable housing towers up to 30 stories. Our equipment handles both - portable BLK360 for walk-up pre-war buildings, and NavVis or RTC360 for larger new developments with amenity spaces. We adapt our approach to each building type.
Do you work with affordable housing developments?
Yes, we work with affordable housing developers for new construction documentation, marketing tours, and compliance documentation. The active development in Inwood under the 2018 rezoning creates ongoing demand. We understand the specific requirements of affordable housing projects.
Is Inwood a historic district?
Only a small portion - the Park Terrace West-West 217th Street Historic District covers 15 Craftsman-style houses. Most of Inwood is NOT in a historic district. The 2018 Inwood Rezoning (Special Inwood District) governs much of the neighborhood, promoting affordable housing development.
How does the 2018 rezoning affect projects?
The 2018 Inwood Rezoning allows increased building density with Mandatory Inclusionary Housing requirements. This has spurred significant affordable housing development. For scanning projects, this means documenting both existing pre-war buildings and new construction. Standard DOB permits apply.
What's the typical cost for an Inwood apartment scan?
Inwood apartment scanning typically ranges from $700-1,500 depending on size and deliverables. A 1,000 sqft unit with Matterport tour might be $800-1,000. New developments with larger amenity spaces or laser scanning requirements cost more. We provide detailed quotes for your specific project.
