Housing and window planning in East Meridian Heights

Houses here run from about 1,700 square feet in the 1921 houses on East 48th Street to nearly 4,000 in the 1925 brick houses on North Pennsylvania Street. In between sit 1924 houses on East 51st Street near 2,000 square feet, 1930 houses on East 46th near 2,600, and 1916 and 1920 houses on East 47th and 48th Streets in the 3,500 to 3,900 range. Exteriors run from cement siding on the 1916 houses to solid brick on the 1925 houses, with vinyl over brick on some of the 1920 houses. Huge covered front porches and finished basements of more than 1,000 square feet turn up on East 48th Street.

The neighborhood's housing gives us a starting point for the visit. We'll still measure your house individually, including any openings that have changed during an update. If you're replacing windows as part of the project, let us know before the treatments are ordered so the plan can use the finished frames.

What to check at the windows in East Meridian Heights

Glass is the selling point of many of these houses. The 1921 houses on East 48th Street have lots of windows, many of them original, and the 1916 houses on East 47th Street carry expansive windows. Original windows on houses of that age commonly turn out to be double hung wood sash, and paint buildup can make a sash bind, so the crew tries each one before choosing between an inside mount and an outside mount on the casing. Finished basements, like those of more than 1,000 square feet on East 48th Street, tend to bring small, shallow windows, and a slim cordless shade can fit inside those frames.

We'll look at the way light enters your East Meridian Heights rooms and check how the windows operate. The treatment needs to suit the opening when it's lowered and when it's raised. That includes the space for the hardware and the access you'll need to use the window.

Products to compare for your East Meridian Heights home

These are options to discuss during your East Meridian Heights consultation. We'll narrow the choice after seeing the glass and learning which rooms you're working on. You can review a coordinated plan for the house or start with the rooms that need attention first.
