HPD Accessibility Guide


HPD Accessibility Guide

The City also aims to better support developers to provide accessible housing and meet the needs of New Yorkers with disabilities. HPD developed a supplementary document, the HPD Accessibility Guide, which outlines the accessibility requirements that apply to multifamily housing. The new guide features a useful diagnostic tool to help design professionals navigate the multiple layers of accessibility regulations and includes an expanded library of accessibility sketches that were formerly found in the previous version of the design guidelines.
