New York updates building code

New York updates building code

(OP)
NY has come out with a new updated code based on the ICC and, I'm sure, with provisions for high rise issues in the wake of 9-11.

I just finished serving on a small committee in my own city in reviewing the 2006 IBC.  We didn't do much to it other than tweak a few sections to better correlate with our local design and construction practices.  I'm curious to know how many cities out there actually just adopt the IBC as is verses re-writing the code to fit their local preferences.
