However, this protection does not apply where the animal causes damage, is a
nuisance, or substantially interferes with other tenants. (NYC Admin. Code §27-2009.1(b);

(Civil Rights Law §47) As always the case, this
is subject to interpretation. It is best to get permission in writing from the
landlord or property manager.
