Bronx Zoning & Land Use Lawyers

In the Bronx, zoning rules shape what you can do with your property—whether you’re thinking about adding a deck, opening a small business, or planning a bigger project. Knowing these rules inside and out helps you avoid costly mistakes and keeps your plans moving forward without delays.

Understanding Zoning Districts in the Bronx

Every part of the Bronx falls into a specific zone, and each one comes with its own set of rules about building size, property use, and development. At Adon & Associates, we help you figure out exactly what’s allowed in your area. Many projects also need careful title searches and verification to make sure everything is in order before you start.

Main Zoning Categories

• Residential zones
• Commercial districts
• Manufacturing areas
• Mixed-use zones
• Special purpose districts

These zoning categories shape neighborhoods all over the Bronx, from the busy shops on Fordham Road to the quiet homes in Riverdale. If you’re planning any changes or new uses for your property, it’s important to know your zone’s rules—especially when you’re dealing with property disputes between neighbors.

Common Zoning Problems

Issues We Often See

• Building permit denials
• Home business restrictions
• Parking requirements
• Building height limits
• Property use violations

We see these zoning headaches all the time in the Bronx. If you’re running into trouble with permits or facing restrictions, our attorneys at Adon & Associates know how to help you fix violations and get the right approvals so your project doesn’t stall.

Getting Zoning Variances

Sometimes your plans don’t fit the usual zoning rules. That’s when you need a variance. We handle the paperwork, prepare your application, and stand by you at zoning board hearings to give you the best shot at approval.

Land Use Changes and Development

If you want to change how your land is used—like turning a store into apartments in Pelham Bay or building new homes in Throgs Neck—you’ll need special approval. We guide you through the process, making sure you understand every step. And when it’s time to transfer property, we help with all the real estate closing procedures you’ll need.
