Is Queens and Brooklyn part of Long Island in New York State?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Geographically speaking, yes. The actual geographic landmass that is Long Island consists of Brooklyn, Queens, Nassau, and Suffolk Counties. Brooklyn and Queens, though, are also boroughs in New York City, which leads many people to think of "Long Island" as being just Nassau and Suffolk. If you say you're going to "Long Island", people generally assume you mean Nassau or Suffolk because Brooklyn and Queens are part of "the city". It's a little confusing if you're not from the area. Hope this helps.

Do you need a permit to cement your yard in Queens NY?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Fences

The Department of Buildings doesn't require property

owners to hire an architect or engineer, provide

design plans or have a work permit to install a fence.

Homeowners may install their own fencing - but

if you're hiring someone to do it be sure it's a home

improvement contractor licensed by the Department

of Consumer Affairs. Use DCA's Instant License Check

at nyc.gov/consumers. In addition, the Landmarks

Preservation Commission must give approval and/or

issue permits for work on landmarked properties. Visit

nyc.gov/landmarks.

Residential and commercial fences for privacy are

typically made of wood, plastic, brick or chain link. The

NYC Building Code generally allows a maximum fence

height of 10 feet, and the NYC Zoning Resolution

outlines additional height limits:

Residential Districts:

6 feet, BC §3111.1

Residential Front Yard Fences:

4 feet, ZR §23-44

Residential Side of Corner Lot:

6 feet, ZR §23-44
