Planning windows in a Lincoln Square condo or vintage building? Let's talk through the details first.

Lincoln Square mixes vintage two-flats and greystones with condo conversions and newer construction, and the ownership structure matters as much as the building. In a condo, the window may be a limited common element, which means the association has a say in what goes in.
We would rather raise that at the start than halfway through. If your building has an approved window specification or a required exterior appearance, tell us and we will work inside it.
The other thing we hear about here is noise. Blocks near Lincoln, Western and Lawrence carry real traffic sound, and a single-glazed original window does very little about it.
No window makes a room silent. A well-sealed modern unit with an appropriate glass package does meaningfully reduce what comes through, and the sealing quality matters as much as the glass.

Approved specifications and exterior appearance requirements handled up front.
Greystones and two-flats have deep openings and trim worth planning around.
Honest expectations about what a new window does and does not do for street sound.
Describe what is happening with your windows and we will tell you what we think it needs. Free, no obligation.
