Port Chester was a manufacturing village before it was a commuter one, and it still looks like it. The Byram River gave it a working waterfront and the industry that came with it, including the Life Savers plant whose building is still a landmark on the skyline, and the housing was built for the people who worked in those places: dense, close to the street, and overwhelmingly multi-family. Two- and three-family frame houses on narrow lots make up much of the village, with older brick commercial and apartment buildings through the downtown. Most of it is pre-war. The village also sits at the mouth of the river on Long Island Sound, at the Connecticut line, which means salt air on top of everything else. It is the densest kind of housing in the county outside Yonkers and Mount Vernon, and windows in it carry more load than they do in a detached house on a big lot.
Multi-family work here begins with egress and an honest inventory of every opening in the building, because mixed histories mean nothing can be assumed from a sample. Hardware and finish specifications account for the salt load this close to the water. On narrow lots we look at how much daylight the frame is taking, since in a side room that is the difference that gets noticed daily. Masonry openings get the lintel checked before a new unit is committed to.
We will survey every opening in the building, report where egress stands, and be straight about what the walls need.
