Building Codes Amended in New York
Tiny homes are in the news all across the country with the unanimous discovery that it is a great investment! I got a call from an adorable man yesterday from New York that wants to build a ‘Cigar Den’ just for himself so he can sit and relax with his cigar and grab abeer from his own personal frig. He wants to put it in his back yard, so he does not bother his beloved wife with cigar smoke.
Leroyalerted me to the fact that channel 5 in New York City were featuring tiny homes and that is how he found me. I watched the newscast and it featured developers building 55 micro homes, the first ever in New York City. The finished units will be in Kips Bay in Manhattan. The micro homes will beseveral stories high and are between 260 to 360 square feet. The building codes were actually amended to allow for this pilot project. That is incredible news for the future of tiny homes everywhere. There is a bill in Wa state working on changing the minimum requirements of homes if the population of the city is less than 125,000 and I am hearing other states are making changes as well.
