For things that are "hmmm".
Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

Surely built before NYC had fire codes. In that case, do some buildings with "historical value" somehow get grandfathered in?
Yeah, at least in most cases. They get labeled as "legal non-conforming" and usually are required to become conforming in the event there is any major reconstruction done to fix a casualty event.
