Business Details
About
Where do you go when you need permits, zoning approval, or small-business certificates in Manhattan? The answer is Manhattan Boro Development Services, the state-run office handling land-use tools for neighborhood projects. The office sits at 413 E 120th St #3, New York, NY 10035, a short walk from East River Plaza and the elevated 125th Street corridor.
This agency issues site-development permits, reviews environmental assessments, coordinates public-rights-of-way work, oversees sidewalk café licences, administers building-height and setback verifications, and processes minor-use permits for residential or retail expansions. Call (212) 410-7707 for intake, scheduling, and document drop-off instructions—operators can route calls to the correct desk before you arrive.
To reach the office, open the map listing on your phone; it drops a pin at the building entrance on 120th Street, cutting down the guesswork in East Harlem or Mott Haven deliveries.
