Read ../nyc-property-report/pluto-resolution.md (shared by all 7 NYC due-diligence skills) and follow it: parse the input (address, BBL, or BIN) and resolve via PLUTO.
This skill's extra: also store histdist from PLUTO — used in Step 3.
Dataset IDs and field names are canonical in ../nyc-property-report/socrata-reference.md — on any disagreement, the reference wins.
Use the Individual Landmarks dataset (buis-pvji). Query by BBL first:
https://data.cityofnewyork.us/resource/buis-pvji.json?bbl={BBL}
If no results, fallback by block + lot. This dataset stores block/lot WITHOUT zero-padding (e.g. block 47, lot 7501) — strip leading zeros from the parsed BBL components:
https://data.cityofnewyork.us/resource/buis-pvji.json?$where=block='{BLOCK}' AND lot='{LOT}' AND borough='{BOROUGH}'
Key fields: lpc_name, lpc_lpnumb, desdate, landmarkty, lpc_sitede, lpc_sitest, lpc_altern, address, url_report
Also check PLUTO's histdist field from Step 2 — if it has a value, the property is in a historic district even if not individually listed in the LPC dataset.
## Landmark Status — {Address}
**Status: LANDMARKED / IN HISTORIC DISTRICT / NOT DESIGNATED**
| Field | Value |
|-------|-------|
| LP Number | {lpc_lpnumb} |
| Name | {lpc_name} |
| Designation Date | {desdate} |
| Type | {landmarkty} |
| Site Description | {lpc_sitede} |
| Site Style | {lpc_sitest} |
| Also Known As | {lpc_altern} |
| LPC Report | {url_report} |
| Historic District | {histdist from PLUTO} |
**Implications:** Exterior alterations require LPC Certificate of Appropriateness before DOB permit.
Source: [LPC Individual Landmarks](https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Housing-Development/Individual-Landmarks/buis-pvji)
If not landmarked and not in a historic district: "No landmark designation found for this property."
This skill produces regulatory output. End every report this skill produces — printed in chat or saved to a file — with the canonical disclaimer block from rules/professional-disclaimer.md, followed by one blank line and the machine-readable marker, exactly as shown:
> **Disclaimer:** This is an AI-generated analysis for preliminary planning purposes. All findings must be verified by a licensed professional before use in design, permitting, or regulatory submissions.
<!-- architecture-studio:requires-disclaimer -->
The marker is a single end-of-file sentinel — it appears exactly once, as the last line of the report. The post-write-disclaimer-check hook parses saved .md reports for the marker and blocks the write if the canonical disclaimer block is missing.

# /as:nyc-landmarks — LPC Landmark & Historic District Check
<!-- architecture-studio:harness-compatibility -->
> Harness note: use `/as:<skill>` on Claude Code and `$<skill>` on Codex. Resolve `<skill-root>` as the directory containing this loaded `SKILL.md` and `<plugin-root>` as the plugin root that contains `skills/`, and use equivalent native tools when host tool names differ.
Check if a NYC building is individually landmarked or within a historic district using the LPC Individual Landmark & Historic District Building Database. No API key required.
## Usage
```
/as:nyc-landmarks 120 Broadway, Manhattan
/as:nyc-landmarks 1000770001 (BBL)
/as:nyc-landmarks 1001389 (BIN)
```
## Steps 1–2: Parse Input & Resolve BBL
Read `../nyc-property-report/pluto-resolution.md` (shared by all 7 NYC due-diligence skills) and follow it: parse the input (address, BBL, or BIN) and resolve via PLUTO.
**This skill's extra:** also store `histdist` from PLUTO — used in Step 3.
## Step 3: Query LPC Database
Dataset IDs and field names are canonical in `../nyc-property-report/socrata-reference.md` — on any disagreement, the reference wins.
Use the Individual Landmarks dataset (`buis-pvji`). Query by BBL first:
```
https://data.cityofnewyork.us/resource/buis-pvji.json?bbl={BBL}
```
If no results, fallback by block + lot. **This dataset stores block/lot WITHOUT zero-padding** (e.g. block `47`, lot `7501`) — strip leading zeros from the parsed BBL components:
```
https://data.cityofnewyork.us/resource/buis-pvji.json?$where=block='{BLOCK}' AND lot='{LOT}' AND borough='{BOROUGH}'
```
Key fields: `lpc_name`, `lpc_lpnumb`, `desdate`, `landmarkty`, `lpc_sitede`, `lpc_sitest`, `lpc_altern`, `address`, `url_report`
Also check PLUTO's `histdist` field from Step 2 — if it has a value, the property is in a historic district even if not individually listed in the LPC dataset.
## Step 4: Print Results
```markdown
## Landmark Status — {Address}
**Status: LANDMARKED / IN HISTORIC DISTRICT / NOT DESIGNATED**
| Field | Value |
|-------|-------|
| LP Number | {lpc_lpnumb} |
| Name | {lpc_name} |
| Designation Date | {desdate} |
| Type | {landmarkty} |
| Site Description | {lpc_sitede} |
| Site Style | {lpc_sitest} |
| Also Known As | {lpc_altern} |
| LPC Report | {url_report} |
| Historic District | {histdist from PLUTO} |
**Implications:** Exterior alterations require LPC Certificate of Appropriateness before DOB permit.
Source: [LPC Individual Landmarks](https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Housing-Development/Individual-Landmarks/buis-pvji)
```
If not landmarked and not in a historic district: "No landmark designation found for this property."
### Conventions
- All dates: YYYY-MM-DD
- If Socrata returns empty array: "No results found"
- If HTTP error: note it and suggest checking the address
- If the user requests, write results to a file
## Final Step: Disclaimer + Marker (required)
This skill produces regulatory output. End every report this skill produces — printed in chat or saved to a file — with the canonical disclaimer block from `rules/professional-disclaimer.md`, followed by one blank line and the machine-readable marker, exactly as shown:
```markdown
> **Disclaimer:** This is an AI-generated analysis for preliminary planning purposes. All findings must be verified by a licensed professional before use in design, permitting, or regulatory submissions.
<!-- architecture-studio:requires-disclaimer -->
```
The marker is a single end-of-file sentinel — it appears exactly once, as the last line of the report. The `post-write-disclaimer-check` hook parses saved `.md` reports for the marker and blocks the write if the canonical disclaimer block is missing.
Skill source recorded
Skill instructions are recorded. This is not a runtime test, safety guarantee or compatibility certification.
Review before install: Avoid automatic install
Listed tools are metadata hints, not tested compatibility. Agent prompts are suggested handoffs.
Check the source for dependencies, API keys and third-party costs. A public repository does not mean every service is free.
Repository metadata and review signals are advisory. Popularity, source discovery and successful execution are different facts.
Version reported in registry metadata; check source releases before relying on it.
